The price of WTI (West Texas Intermediate) crude oil fell by 2.6% to $80.20 on Wednesday, following hopes for a deal on the Strait of Hormuz.

The Strait of Hormuz is a crucial waterway that connects the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Oman and plays a significant role in global oil trade.

Hopes for a deal were sparked after Iran and Saudi Arabia agreed to de-escalate their tensions, which had been causing concerns about supply disruptions.
