What happened

Well supportedReported by 18 independent outlets

Brent crude oil prices dropped 7% to under 106 US dollars a barrel following reports of progress in US-Iran peace talks and signals from Donald Trump regarding diplomatic solutions to the conflict. This retreat in oil prices helped lower long-term UK government borrowing costs. Earlier, in September, Brent crude had jumped to USD 108/bbl as markets reacted to ongoing disruptions near the Strait of Hormuz.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The easing of geopolitical risk in the Middle East has reduced pressure on global energy markets, which in turn helps calm inflation fears. Lower energy costs give central banks more room to assess the impact of tighter monetary policy. The Bank of England, for example, may reconsider signals for future interest rate increases given the drop in oil prices.

A war between two nations ended with a framework deal, which triggered a global equities rally and eased pressure on energy markets.
