Bank of America raises oil forecast to $95 as Iran war threatens $150 spike

The bank cited damaged infrastructure and rising geopolitical tensions in revising its year-end Brent crude outlook.

What to know

  • Bank of America raised its year-end Brent crude forecast to $95/barrel (from $83), citing Iran war disruptions and damaged infrastructure.
  • The bank warned crude could exceed $150/barrel if the conflict persists and supply remains constrained.
  • Alternative shipping routes have only partially offset the shortfall, making a rapid return to normal supply unlikely.

“Bank of America warned Tuesday that oil prices may climb beyond $150 a barrel should the ongoing war in Iran continue to strain global inventories.”
