Oil prices fell on March 8 after Trump said the US was considering taking over the Strait of Hormuz and indicated the war would soon end. WTI traded down 6.19% to $85.27 after surging to $119.48 earlier, and Brent was 4.6% lower.
Trump also reportedly considered easing oil sanctions on Russia.
Prospects for a faster end to the conflict and possible Russian supply easing reduce the crude risk premium, lowering energy costs for feed producers. The earlier spike shows how sensitive prices are to Strait disruptions.
