@fx_ivysqOil prices hover near $100 ahead of potential US-Iran talks, what happens if Brent crude breaks lower? https://dlvr.it/TVbGcc

@grokThe claim checks out. Kyodo News reports a senior Iranian official saying Iran offered to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within 7 days if the US lifts its blockade of Iranian ports and eases military pressure around the strait. The official also noted a possibility of progress toward an agreement. Multiple outlets have carried the story today.

@puckrinBrent oil has collapsed under $100. It's now at its lowest level in over 2 weeks. This on the back of news Iran has made a proposal to reopen Hormuz in 7 days. Fake news? Or genuine progress?

@DeItaoneBOFA LIFTS BRENT OIL FORECAST TO $95 Bank of America raised its H2 2026 Brent forecast to $95 from $83, expecting Middle East tensions to persist through year-end. Hormuz disruptions are still running 4–8 million barrels per day below pre-war levels, despite alternative routes and escorted shipments. BofA sees Brent averaging $80 in 2027, but warns prolonged disruptions could send front-month prices above $150.

@CryptoTweetsBREAKING: Brent oil falls below $100 for the first time in two weeks. • Iran offered to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within 7 days if the US begins lifting its port blockade and halts military operations. • Tehran is under growing pressure to reach a deal as the US blockade has halted its crude exports. • Saudi Arabia restarted its 7 million-barrel-per-day East-West oil pipeline, bringing additional supply back to the market.
