Crude oil prices drop on U.S.-Iran talks but Strait of Hormuz remains closed, supply risks persist.

November WTI and December Brent crude oil futures fell sharply after U.S.-Iran truce talks reduced the war premium but did not resolve supply risks. Iran remains firm on its nuclear stance despite proposals to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, where vessel traffic remains minimal compared to pre-war levels. Additional pressure came from a 4% drop in U.S. gasoline futures and concerns over a possible diesel export ban, complicating refinery margins. Market uncertainty continues as geopolitical tensions and disrupted supply routes keep crude prices volatile, with traders cautious about a full reopening of Hormuz or a stable supply outlook.

Oil futures saw a notable decline with U.S. gasoline futures dropping 4% amid ongoing U.S.-Iran truce talks and persistent risks around the Strait of Hormuz. For readers following crude oil market dynamics, here is Pluang's snapshot as of Sep 28, 2026 01:51 WIB: of 38 priced Energy-sector US stocks, 9 rose and 28 fell. MPLX dropped 2.04% to USD 56.80, Williams Companies Inc fell 1.87% to USD 69.26 with a typical hold time of 57 days, and EOG Resources Inc declined 1.76% to USD 140.35 with a typical hold time of 59 days.
