Brent settled at $94.60 on November 4, down 8.7% on the day and 19.6% over three sessions, its steepest three-day drop since April 2020. WTI settled near $88.12, down 8.3%, as markets priced in expectations of a US-Iran end-of-war agreement after the Democratic midterm victory.
The sharp drop reflects a shift in war-premium expectations that lowers energy and freight costs for feed buyers, but the market remains exposed to headline reversals if talks falter.
