「Oil prices rise after Iran seizes oil tanker」:  ?

Oil prices have risen after Iran seized a tanker off the coast of Oman, raising concerns fuel prices could increase.

実際はこれから？　　実はWTI、思っているよりあがっていません。　今　72USD ぐらいです。　

The oil tanker was heading for Turkey on Thursday when armed men ordered it to sail to an Iranian port.

あからさますぎ。

The price of Brent crude oil jumped by more than 2%, to $78.40 a barrel following the incident.

と言っていますが、そのぐらいは、いつでも動きます。

Iranian state media is reporting the seizure is a retaliation for the hijacking last year of the same vessel by the US.

のせいだそうです。　　なんだかね～。

The act raises prospects of growing conflict in the Middle East, which could have a knock-on effect on UK fuel prices.

というより、欧州全体？

This most recent incident appears to be separate from attacks carried out by Houthi rebels from Yemen in the Red Sea, on the opposite side of the Arabian peninsula.

今、イランと連携し本来かなりまずいです。

Conversely, there has been a "surprisingly strong growth in US oil production in 2023 and in some other non-OPEC producers such as Brazil and Guyana," Ms Bain said, which has "allayed fears of disruption to Middle East supply."

サウジアラビアも大変そう。

いろいろなニュースが合わさりWTI、72USD ではあるのですが、もう、フーシ派＆イラン次第で原油価格がどうなるか不明です。　彼らが動けば、ロシアも動きます。
