Oil prices rose more than US$1 as stalled Iran-U.S. peace talks and continued restrictions in the Strait of Hormuz heightened supply risk. The move reflects a geopolitically driven tightening of crude market conditions, with potential implications for global energy costs and inflation expectations. Market impact is high because the Strait of Hormuz is a critical transit chokepoint for global oil flows.
