## Resource

The Strait of Hormuz is set to reopen this Friday after a U.S.-Iran peace deal, but oil prices won’t surge immediately. Barclays keeps its 2026 Brent forecast at $100/barrel, noting recovery could take weeks, not days, due to logistical hurdles and lingering risks. While Citi, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley are more optimistic—predicting normalized trade by mid-to-late July and full production recovery by December—the market remains cautious. Underlying demand concerns and potential supply surpluses next year keep analysts skeptical, even as the fighting ends. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
