Oil prices rise after U.S.-Iran strikes in Strait of Hormuz.
Oil rose nearly 1% following attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz, including a Qatar-linked oil tanker, which triggered retaliatory strikes from the U.S. and Iran. Iran and the U.S. agreed to renew talks over the strait, raising hopes of preserving an interim peace deal. Expectations of a continued recovery in energy shipping through the strait limited price gains.
