Curated summary
Oil prices climbed as hopes faded for a near-term reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Al Jazeera reported Brent crude rose more than $2 to $84.64 a barrel and U.S. WTI climbed 3.1% to $80.63 after Iran demanded the U.S. end military threats and sanctions and provide compensation. The report noted both benchmarks had fallen 7% last week on hopes of a deal, while AAA data showed U.S. petrol prices had dipped to $4.00 a gallon from $4.09. GasBuddy’s Patrick De Haan warned prices could rise fast again and potentially hit a late-year record if the strait remains closed.
