Although there is still no official agreement, the market seems to be assessing the situation in a cooling down direction.
The world gasoline and oil market in the past week's operating period was affected by key factors such as: the developments of the negotiation to end the conflict between the US and Iran; the US and Iran continued to attack each other while negotiating; the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine continued... The above factors caused the world finished gasoline and oil prices in recent days to increase and decrease depending on each item.
