US-Iran Pause Sends Oil Prices Plummeting

Oil prices plummeted on Monday as hopes for a return to the US-Iran ceasefire and negotiations on reopening the Strait of Hormuz boosted investor confidence.

A 13-day cycle of tit-for-tat strikes between the two nations paused over the weekend, with Donald Trump's UN envoy saying the US president was 'giving talks some space'.

Tehran said it would stop its retaliatory attacks on regional neighbors, providing a respite for Gulf shipping and the oil industry.

Crude prices soared in response to the conflict, but dropped as news of continued shipping in the Red Sea and diplomatic efforts eased worries about inflation and interest rate hikes.
