  • Oil Jumps Over 5% After Trump Says Iran Deal Is 'Over'
    July 8, 2026, 8:07 AM EDT. Oil moved sharply higher, up more than 5%, hitting a two-week high after President Trump said the U.S. memorandum with Iran is 'over', raising worries about supply from the Middle East. Brent gained 5.76% at $78.43 a barrel, with U.S. West Texas Intermediate up 5.55% to $74.35. The move comes after U.S. strikes on Iran following incidents with commercial ships near the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint for about 20% of world oil flows. Brent's backwardation is pointing to tighter short-term supply. Analysts say fresh closures in the Strait can't be ruled out as tensions stay high. HSBC has lowered its forecast for Brent in 2026 to $80 a barrel, expecting Gulf crude exports to return to normal.
