Preços do petróleo caem abaixo de US$ 95 pelo segundo dia consecutivo

Os preços do petróleo caíram abaixo de US$ 95 por barril em 15 de abril, marcando o segundo dia consecutivo de quedas. A baixa decorre do otimismo com a possibilidade de novas negociações entre EUA e Irã para resolver questões de fornecimento no Oriente Médio após o fechamento do Estreito de Ormuz. Donald Trump sinalizou que as negociações poderiam ser retomadas em breve.

Os preços do petróleo continuaram sua trajetória de queda, recuando abaixo de US$ 95 pelo segundo dia seguido. Operadores citaram a crescente esperança de que novas discussões entre EUA e Irã possam aliviar as interrupções no fornecimento no Oriente Médio causadas pelo recente fechamento do Estreito de Ormuz, um ponto de estrangulamento crítico para os fluxos globais de petróleo, conforme relatado pelo The Economic Times. Esse otimismo aumentou as expectativas de uma resolução rápida para restabelecer os embarques normais. Donald Trump indicou que as conversas podem ser retomadas em breve, impulsionando o sentimento de mercado de que as tensões podem diminuir. O desenvolvimento ocorre em meio a preocupações mais amplas sobre a estabilidade regional afetando os mercados de commodities, com o Brent e o WTI sendo referenciados na cobertura relacionada.
