Oil prices increased after U.S. President Donald Trump announced that China agreed to purchase oil from the U.S. following talks with Chinese leader Xi Jinping. Brent crude rose 1.49% to $107.30 a barrel, and U.S. West Texas Intermediate gained 1.55% to $102.74 per barrel. However, China has not confirmed these purchases, and there was no official response from Chinese authorities. The price gains were also supported by agreements between the two leaders to keep the Strait of Hormuz open, a vital oil shipping route, with China opposing militarization or toll charges for its use. U.S. Treasury Secretary also noted China's interest in reopening the strait, which is crucial for global oil supply.
