🚹 OIL REBOUNDS ABOVE $100 — HORMUZ SHIPPING RISKS RISE

Oil prices climbed again as attacks and security risks around Gulf shipping routes raised fresh concerns about Middle East supply.

🔑 Key Points
‱ Brent crude: $101.53 (+1.33%)
‱ WTI crude: $89.39 (+1.26%)
‱ U.S. crude inventories fell 3.2M barrels
‱ Diesel inventories also declined
‱ Tanker attacks around the Strait of Hormuz reached their highest weekly level since the war began
‱ Hormuz previously carried around 20% of global oil & fuel shipments

📊 Market Insight
The IEA's strategic-stock release can provide temporary supply relief, but it does not create new production capacity. With shipping risks rising and U.S. crude inventories falling more than expected, the oil market remains highly sensitive to further supply disruptions.
