What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

WTI futures fell 1.2% to US$90.40, and Brent futures fell 1.3% to US$102.91, on October 9. The decline followed President Donald Trump stating the United States would not attack Iran before the November 3 midterm elections, easing fears of shipping disruption through the Strait of Hormuz. During this time, Ecopetrol remained flat at US$16.94, while Petrobras shares rose 2.47%.
