Summary
Oil prices teeter on the edge as US-Iran peace talks stall amid fresh clashes near the Strait of Hormuz — the world’s lifeline for oil. Brent crude hovers at $99, WTI near $93, while two non-Iranian tankers broke a week-long blockade — a tiny sign of hope. Experts say markets are betting on a deal, but true reopening will take days — not minutes. Meanwhile, Russia may slash diesel exports, and Trump’s cabinet meets to tackle Iran’s frozen assets and strait access. Don’t expect relief — if the strait stays closed, prices stay high.
