Oil prices rose on Wednesday, wiping out previous losses after reports of gun attacks on at least three container ships in the Strait of Hormuz and unsuccessful peace talks between the US and Iran.
The world gasoline and oil market in this operating period is influenced by key factors such as: the US deploying measures to blockade the Strait of Hormuz; expectations for further negotiations between the US and Iran to end the conflict; military conflict between Russia and Ukraine still taking place... The above factors have caused world finished gasoline and oil prices in recent days to increase and decrease depending on each item.
