Context
The comments from Iran's Parliamentary Speaker highlight an awareness of external influences on oil futures, signaling potential political pushback against market manipulation. This implies a vigilant stance on the geopolitical landscape affecting oil prices, particularly as they tease speculative ability to convert futures into physical supplies. Traders should consider how this rhetoric could influence market sentiment and lead to volatility in oil prices during both EU and US sessions.
