Iran and Israel crisis: what does it mean for the price of oil?
Briefly

The ongoing crisis between Israel and Iran has resulted in substantial fluctuations in oil prices, marking the largest daily surge in three years. Brent crude oil reached as high as $78 per barrel before cooling below $75. Concerns persist that escalating tensions could restrict Iranian oil exports and crude flows from the Middle East, potentially pushing prices up to $120. However, some analysts believe the current pricing may have already accounted for losses and predict stability below $80, helped by US involvement aiming to maintain lower prices.
The escalating crisis between Israel and Iran has triggered the largest single-day oil price surge in three years, raising concerns over future price hikes.
Analysts predict that oil prices could potentially rise to $120 a barrel if the conflict escalates and blocks oil flows from the Middle East.
