World Oil Prices Decline After Volatility

Global oil prices have shown a downward trend after a week of fluctuations, with prices easing at the start of trading on Friday, according to international media reports.

Analysts attribute the decline primarily to recent remarks by former U.S. President Donald Trump, who announced a temporary 10-day delay in potential strikes on Iran’s energy facilities. The development has helped ease concerns in the market and contributed to a stabilization in prices.

Data shows that Brent crude prices fell by 90 cents, or 0.8 percent, to $107.11 per barrel in early Friday trading. Meanwhile, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude dropped by 83 cents, or 0.88 percent, to $93.65 per barrel.

Market observers note that this decline has moderated the upward momentum seen in the previous session, reflecting renewed cautious sentiment among traders.
