Brent reportedly slides despite reports of a tanker attack near Hormuz

One post, citing Maritime Executive, says a projectile hit a tanker off Musandam, sparking an engine-room fire with no injuries. It says December Brent settled at $100.32, down 1.89%. A later October 6 post puts Brent at $96.43, down more than 3%, and WTI at $86.48, down 2.16%. That post also says Iran will not back down on the Strait of Hormuz.
