[MARKET ANALYSIS) Oil prices remain underpinned as the Iran conflict entered a fourth day

Importance
Level 1

WTI/Brent: WTI Apr'25 +1.0% / Brent May'26 +1.4%

  • Oil futures remain underpinned as the Iran conflict entered a fourth day, with the IRGC threatening to attack any ship trying to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, while US President Trump warned of larger strikes against Iran.

Gold: +0.6%

  • Rose but with gains capped amid fluctuations in silver and as the dollar held on to recent spoils.

Copper: +0.1%

  • Trades indecisively with an early rebound thwarted by resistance around the USD 6/lb level and amid the downbeat risk sentiment.
