Oil retreats after rally as Trump hints Iran campaign could be brief
Oil prices edged lower in Asia after a three-day rally as Trump said renewed attacks on Iran would not last long, helping ease near-term supply fears tied to the Strait of Hormuz. Brent hovered around $95.25 a barrel and WTI near $90.80 after Wednesday’s gains, while U.S. inventories showed a 4.5 million-barrel weekly draw. Shipping through Hormuz remained volatile despite the data, and OPEC+ is expected to keep October output policy unchanged as it unwinds cuts, keeping focus on potential Middle East supply risks.
