What happened
Brent crude prices have been highly volatile due to geopolitical tensions between the United States and Iran. When conflict escalated in the Middle East, oil prices jumped, with Brent crude rising more than 2%. Conversely, de-escalation hopes surrounding talks at the UN General Assembly led to Brent crude falling 2.5% to $101.30.
Why it matters
The geopolitical situation involving Iran and the United States directly influences global oil supply risk, particularly concerning the Strait of Hormuz. Escalating conflict has been linked to rising costs and inflation in various economies.
