Strait Reopens But Oil Prices Won't Drop Fast

A potential deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz could ease global oil fears, but prices won’t plummet overnight. Experts warn it’ll take time to restore normal operations—insurance, crew deployment, and tanker logistics all need rebuilding. Brent and U.S. crude dipped slightly Monday, yet remain far above pre-war levels. With ships stranded and tankers moving slowly, oil won’t reach markets for months. Producers are also stuck without storage, and recovery will be gradual. Countries like Saudi Arabia and the UAE may lead the rebound, but full production won’t return until confidence in the peace deal is solid.
