  • WTI Oil Jumps 7% as US Strikes Iran, Strait of Hormuz Threatened
    July 8, 2026, 1:32 PM EDT. WTI crude oil prices climbed 7.41%, reaching a two-week high as US-Iran tensions flared and the Strait of Hormuz faced new risk. The route is critical for global oil shipments. Gasoline futures were up 6.62% to a one-month high. The US hit over 80 Iranian sites after Iran targeted commercial vessels. President Trump said more US strikes and blockades were possible. Iran threatened to shut the Strait, putting supplies in doubt. The crude crack spread moved to a record, making refining more attractive. Higher supply from Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Russia did little to ease IEA concern, as it still expects global oil demand to fall 1.1 million barrels a day in 2024.
