Global oil prices continued to rise as investors grew concerned that the conflict could last longer and the United States could target Iran's oil facilities. U.S. WTI crude for May delivery and Brent for June delivery both rose, with WTI overtaking Brent on worries about short-term supply disruptions in the Hormuz Strait. Brent rose 7.8% to $109.03 per barrel, while WTI gained 11.4% to $111.50. Intra-day Brent prices even reached $141.36 per barrel—the highest since the 2008 financial crisis—according to S&P Global data, signaling that physical supply is tight as Iran closes the Hormuz Strait, which handles roughly 20-25% of global crude oil and about 30% of LNG. The front-month WTI price rose above $110 per barrel, outpacing Brent. The move came after President Donald Trump’s comments on April 2 that the conflict could endure at least 2-3 more weeks and that the U.S. could escalate by targeting Iran’s oil facilities. Investors fear a protracted conflict could raise global energy costs, push up inflation, and restrain economic growth. U.S. gasoline prices have climbed about 37% since the conflict began, averaging $4.08 per gallon (roughly $1.08 per liter), according to the American Automobile Association (AAA). Consumers face rising costs from food to air travel, forcing many households to rethink spending. “The fog of war remains thick, and oil supply is still too tight to signal safety,” said Felix Vezina-Poirier, Chief Strategist at BCA Research. Meanwhile, U.S. stock markets opened lower but recovered after news that Iran and Oman are building a mechanism to facilitate ships through the Hormuz corridor. Investors are focusing on when oil flows could resume through the strategic shipping route. The DJIA fell about 61 points, or 0.13%, after briefly sliding more than 650 points. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite rose 0.11% and 0.18%, reversing from earlier declines of more than 1.5%.
