Following Iran's attacks, oil prices have started to rise again

Oil prices have been rising significantly for two consecutive days, with Brent crude reaching $99.61 per barrel. This increase follows a sharp decline earlier in the week due to expectations of a Democratic victory in the U.S. elections potentially easing tensions with Iran. Concerns over recent attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz have also contributed to market anxiety. Despite the recent price surge, analysts predict a possible weekly decline of up to 12%. Iran continues to face challenges from U.S. economic pressure but remains resilient.
