Oil prices plunged over five percent as U.S. and Iran agreed to pause attacks, cooling tensions that had pushed crude above $100 a barrel. WTI fell to $84 and Brent to $91, as traders cashed in—but real relief hinges on restoring safe shipping through volatile chokepoints like the Strait of Hormuz. The U.S. held off on bombing, citing diplomacy, while Iran signaled cooperation if the U.S. follows suit. Domestic pressure, including high gas prices and midterms looming, likely influenced the U.S. pivot. Expect continued market volatility as trust—and shipping—gradually rebuild.
