I'm your host Vanessa, and today we're diving into the hottest updates on crude oil prices amid all the global drama.As of the latest trading on Tuesday, Brent crude is hovering at $109.30 per barrel, up about 1% from yesterday's close of $108.23. WTI crude is right behind at $97.31, also gaining nearly 1%, according to Times of India reports. That's a solid rally after Monday's 3% surge, pushing prices toward that $110 mark everyone’s watching.What's driving this? The Strait of Hormuz is still shut down after nearly two months, thanks to the ongoing US-Iran tensions. Peace talks have stalled—President Trump even canceled a key envoy trip to Pakistan, and Iran's holding firm on shipping approvals while the US blockades their ports. Axios notes Tehran might consider an interim deal to reopen it if the US lifts the port blockade, but for now, supply chains are squeezed tight. This chokepoint handles 20% of global oil flows, so no wonder prices are climbing. Fortune pegged Brent at $106.73 just yesterday morning, showing how fast things move.Broader picture: Experts at Brookings warn we could see $150 per barrel if disruptions drag on, hitting drivers hard with US gas already over $4 a gallon. California's bracing for an energy crunch too, per Peter Zeihan. And with central banks like the Fed meeting soon, volatility's the name of the game.Quick tip for you traders and everyday folks: Keep an eye on diplomatic headlines—they're the real price movers right now.
