Oil Holds Loss on Prospect of Fresh Peace Talks With Hormuz Shut
Article Summary
HOLD- Oil prices held onto sharp losses as the U.S. and Iran seek further talks to end the Strait of Hormuz conflict, which has brought the vital waterway to a near-halt, with Brent trading near $96 a barrel largely back to its level before peace talks broke down over the weekend after losing almost 5% on Tuesday.
- The global oil market has been jolted by the conflict triggered an unprecedented supply shock as top Persian Gulf producers lost a crucial export route and saw key energy infrastructure attacked, with the US and Iran aiming to hold more discussions before an April 7 ceasefire expires next week.
- The broad-based pullback is driven by growing market optimism that diplomacy, not escalation, is now dominating, with traders not currently expecting disruption to persist for months, though the Dated Brent benchmark remains above $120 a barrel.
- Analysts expect supply from the Middle East may see a tiered recovery with 2 million to 3 million barrels a day likely to be restored in the first four weeks followed by additional volumes.
