Oil prices today: Brent steadies near $81 as Hormuz disruption drags on and banks flag $100 risk

Oil prices today: Brent steadies near $81 as Hormuz disruption drags on and banks flag $100 risk

Oil prices slipped back after an early jump on Wednesday, with Brent futures down 24 cents at $81.13 a barrel by 11:18 a.m. ET, and U.S. West Texas Intermediate losing 27 cents to $74.30—a 0.4% dip. Earlier, Brent had surged over $3 to reach $84.48, but news of possible intelligence talks between Iran and the U.S. wiped out much of the rally. UBS’s Giovanni Staunovo pointed out that traders appeared to be betting on “a de-escalation.” Still, Dennis Kissler at BOK Financial flagged that heavy volumes of oil lingering offshore could leave “price volatility” elevated.

Oil prices dip after surprise U.S. stock build as Brent, WTI juggle Iran talks and OPEC+ supply

Oil prices dip after surprise U.S. stock build as Brent, WTI juggle Iran talks and OPEC+ supply

Oil prices turned lower on Wednesday, pushed down after U.S. government numbers showed crude inventories jumped far more than analysts had forecast, outweighing any upside from fresh U.S.-Iran friction. Brent slipped 12 cents to $70.65 a barrel as of 11:16 a.m. ET, a 0.2% drop. U.S. West Texas Intermediate fell 26 cents, or 0.4%, trading at $65.37. “The oil market remains more influenced by other factors at present, such as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East,” UBS commodity analyst Giovanni Staunovo said.

Brent crude price today: Oil slips below $69 as Hormuz risks linger, US inventories next

Brent crude price today: Oil slips below $69 as Hormuz risks linger, US inventories next

Brent crude slipped on Tuesday, traders hesitant as potential disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz—the channel moving around 20% of the world’s oil—remained just a risk scenario. Brent futures dropped 24 cents to $68.80 a barrel as of 1002 GMT, off 0.35%. U.S. WTI lost 30 cents, landing at $64.06. “Unless there are concrete signs of supply disruptions, prices will likely start going lower,” Tamas Varga at PVM said.

Silver price rebounds after falling below $65 as CME margin hikes add to turmoil

Silver price rebounds after falling below $65 as CME margin hikes add to turmoil

Spot silver surged 6.3% to $75.70 an ounce on Friday, bouncing back after dipping below $65 earlier in the session. Iran’s top diplomat described nuclear talks with the U.S. in Oman as a “good start,” signaling they’d continue—supporting demand for safe-haven metals. The dollar index fell 0.2%, while spot gold gained 3.5% to $4,935.49. “What we’re seeing in silver is huge speculation on the long side,” noted Jim Wyckoff, senior analyst at Kitco Metals.

UBS analyst Giovanni Staunovo said Middle East tensions remain a “strong influence” on prices. John Evans of PVM Oil Associates warned Brent could be “banging on the door of $70” if the talks fail.

Crude oil prices tumble 5% after Trump flags Iran talks; Brent and WTI slide from January highs

Crude oil prices tumble 5% after Trump flags Iran talks; Brent and WTI slide from January highs

Oil prices dropped about 5% on Monday after U.S. President Donald Trump said Iran was “seriously talking” with Washington, easing fears of a supply disruption from the OPEC member. By 0920 GMT, Brent crude futures slid $3.63, or 5.2%, to $65.69 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate fell $3.60, or 5.5%, to $61.61. This decline came after January’s biggest monthly gains since 2022 — with Brent up 16% and WTI 13%. UBS analyst Giovanni Staunovo attributed the move to quieter Middle East headlines and fewer outages in the U.S. and Kazakhstan. Priyanka Sachdeva of Phillip Nova noted a “renewed strength in the U.S. dollar,” and Capital Economics said geopolitical tensions had obscured a “fundamentally bearish” oil market.

Gold price set for a bumpy week after historic slide from record highs

Gold price set for a bumpy week after historic slide from record highs

Gold prices head into the next session after a record plunge on Friday, with spot bullion suffering its sharpest daily drop since 1983. Spot gold tumbled 9.5% to $4,883.62 an ounce, while U.S. February futures closed down 11.4% at $4,745.10. Despite the selloff, gold remains on track for a monthly gain exceeding 13%. The slide came after Donald Trump tapped Kevin Warsh to lead the Federal Reserve and the dollar index rose 0.7%. Standard Chartered's Suki Cooper described the move as profit-taking — locking in gains — driven by shifts in the dollar and real yields, or inflation-adjusted bond returns. Nicky Shiels, strategist at MKS PAMP SA, called January “the most volatile month” in precious metals.
