What to know

  • Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline, which carries up to 4% of global oil supply and lets Gulf exports bypass the Strait of Hormuz, is expected to stay offline for weeks after a strike blamed on Iran-backed fighters in Iraq.
  • Houthis have escalated attacks, capturing Perim Island and striking a Saudi military airbase at Khamis Mushait, while Gulf Arab states postponed planned talks with Iran.
  • Strait of Hormuz vessel transits fell to single digits per day, far below the 10-day average of 14, and Yanbu port storage is estimated to cover only five to seven days of exports.
  • Oil spiked nearly 5% intraday before easing after Trump said Iran wanted a deal with Washington; markets are also weighing an expected Fed rate hike on Wednesday.
