Brent holds above $100 as tanker attacks deepen supply fears

Brent crude futures remained above $100 per barrel on Thursday despite slight fluctuations in market pricing. The sustained price level follows intensified military activity in the six-month-old conflict between Iran and the United States, which included the largest series of attacks on shipping vessels to date. Traders are responding to these developments with concerns regarding potential long-term supply disruptions.

Market data indicates that Brent crude futures experienced minor declines during morning trading hours, with prices recorded between $100.50 and $101.10. The volatility reflects ongoing market sensitivity to geopolitical tensions affecting maritime transit routes.
