Israel-Iran Truce Pushes Oil Prices to Pre-Conflict Levels

1510 ET – Oil futures extend yesterday’s losses as the Israel-Iran cease-fire takes another chunk of risk premium out of the market and fundamentals come back into focus. “We don’t see any permanent change to supply” as a result of the conflict, says Brian Kessens, portfolio manager at Tortoise Capital. Tortoise expects OPEC+ to unwind all of its voluntary additional output cuts by year-end, leaving the market “marginally oversupplied” by 300,000 or 400,000 barrels a day, he says. “Over the longer term it will be healthier for the crude oil market because we won’t be playing this game about how is OPEC+ going to manage the market.” WTI settles down 6% at $64.37 a barrel and Brent falls 6.1% to $67.14 a barrel.

U.S. Gas Prices Set to Drop as Iran Conflict Unfolds

RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCAN)—The recent U.S. military actions in Iran have sparked queries regarding their potential impact on oil and gas prices; however, specialists assert that there’s no cause for concern. "For now, it’s alright to pause and catch your breath; you don’t have to panic right away," stated Matt McClain, a petroleum specialist at GasBuddy. McClain says the situation with Iran is evolving and can be concerning to consumers. However, following the reprisal observed on Monday when Iran launched missile attacks against the U.S. base in Qatar and recognizing the potential economic risks associated with blocking the Strait of Hormuz, analysts from GasBuddy see no cause for concern. "Everyone involved in trading oil let out a profound sigh of relief, which was evident in both the pricing of a barrel of crude oil and wholesale gasoline prices," according to McClain. As reported by AAA North Carolina, the average cost of gasoline stands at $2.92 p...
