The price of WTI crude oil has broken above a declining resistance line that had capped every rally since March 2026, but Brent crude did not follow suit. This development changes the outlook for crude oil supply risk and tests the market in new areas.

Razan Hilal, StoneX Media Market Analyst, noted that WTI broke above its March ceiling, while Brent stalled at the neckline of a double top formation that triggered the June 2026 selloff. This divergence suggests a shift in market dynamics, moving from oversupply concerns to persistent tightening conditions.

The crude oil market has been impacted by various geopolitical events, including strikes on Russian oil refineries and tensions between the United States and Iran. The Strait of Hormuz has also become a point of concern, with its risk affecting global supply. As a result, the Strategic Petroleum Reserve is holding near levels last seen roughly 44 years ago.
