Prețul petrolului depășește 100 de dolari

Oil prices surpassed $100 per barrel for the first time since July due to escalating Middle East conflicts and Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia. Brent crude rose by 2.2%, while WTI increased by 1.8%. Saudi authorities temporarily suspended operations at some energy facilities following these attacks, which have injured numerous people. The situation raises concerns about potential disruptions in oil supply, impacting global markets. Several banks have revised their oil price forecasts upward, reflecting the ongoing tensions and their effects on energy prices.
