Oil prices fell after President Trump said the U.S. would pause its naval escort effort in the Strait of Hormuz, easing immediate supply-disruption risk. He cited progress toward a "Complete and Final Agreement" with Iran, which lowers near-term geopolitical tension in a critical energy chokepoint. The move is likely to pressure crude benchmarks and oil-related assets in the short term.
