Oil prices have been volatile, swinging between $96 and $102 after a 36% surge in March, driven by disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz which handles about 20% of global oil supply. US crude inventories rose by 10.3 million barrels, and emergency oil releases have eased some pressure, but OPEC's production cuts maintain a geopolitical premium on prices. If tensions escalate, oil could reach $110, but easing could see prices fall to the low $90s. Natural gas prices remain steady around $2.87 per million Btu due to low demand and steady US production, with prices unlikely to rise unless Hormuz disruptions worsen.
