West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil dropped nearly 3% on Thursday, trading around $91 per barrel. The decline followed a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Lebanon, which reduced geopolitical risk premiums in the oil market. The move ended a three-day winning streak for WTI as market sentiment improved on the news.
The ceasefire eased fears of supply disruptions in the Middle East, a key oil-producing region. Traders are now watching for further developments and potential impact on global crude inventories.
