Iran Peace Deal Lifts WTI $75 Contract to 51.5%
The WTI crude below-$75 June contract sits at 51.5% as of 21:35 UTC Monday, recovering from a session low of 44.5% after Trump's Iran peace deal drove spot crude toward $80.
The WTI crude oil below-$75 contract stands at 51.5% at 21:35 UTC Monday — a near coin-flip on whether the Iran peace deal's geopolitical-premium unwind can carry spot crude the remaining ~$5 to the $75 target. The 1d session reached a high of 0.765 when the deal broke Sunday evening, crashed through 0.495 at 22:25 UTC to a 1d low of 0.445, then recovered as Trump's confirmed accord fueled renewed YES conviction throughout Monday.
