  • Oil Prices Fall on US-Iran Negotiation Hopes and Reserve Drawdowns
    June 13, 2026, 9:42 AM EDT. Oil prices fell sharply as optimism over a potential US-Iran peace deal grew, raising hopes for reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint for about 20% of global oil trade. Brent crude ended at $87.33 a barrel, down 3.37%, while West Texas Intermediate dropped 3.23% to $84.88, marking the lowest close since mid-April. Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif indicated a framework agreement could emerge within 24 hours. However, Iranian officials caution the deal is not finalized and remains fluid. Meanwhile, US crude stockpiles, including the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, reached their lowest level since February 2024, intensifying market sensitivity. Falling Chinese crude imports, down nearly 40% from 2025 averages, also contributed to the downward pressure on oil prices. Oil markets remain volatile amid a complex mix of geopolitical and supply factors.
