WTI Breaks Above $93.18 as Geopolitical Tensions Escalate
WTI crude oil has broken above $93.18 resistance and is trading around $93-$94, supported by escalating U.S.-Iran tensions, reduced Strait of Hormuz traffic, and a significant reduction in Middle Eastern oil flows.
The market's fundamental backdrop remains bullish because it's dealing with actual supply disruption rather than simply geopolitical fear.
Technically, holding above $93.18 keeps $94.66 and $96.14 in play, while another major disruption to Gulf infrastructure could quickly bring the $100 WTI conversation back into focus.
