Summary
Oil prices surged nearly 10% this week, with Brent crude hitting $108 a barrel — its highest in months — as Middle East tensions fuel fears of prolonged conflict and disrupted shipping lanes. Saudi output hits a 27-year low, while analysts debate if the supply crunch is temporary or structural. Trump hints prices may fall after November’s midterms, but geopolitical risks remain high. With renewable energy gaining ground, demand could soften — making sustained highs unlikely beyond 2026. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
