Trump Touts RECORD Oil Price Drop

Trump says oil is down almost $10 a barrel, calling it a record, and that Iran wants a settlement. After the Strait of Hormuz closure shoved oil and gas prices up, that's a nice thing to hear, and I'll take it without asking for the paperwork. Brent closed near $104, down from a $120 peak during the Iran war, and Axios reports a Qatar-mediated draft on confidence-building measures is on the table. Don't count your chickens before they hatch, since nobody has hatched a formal deal yet. Semafor says experts doubt Washington could restart a war effort and that Gulf bases took billions in damage. Washington would argue with a fence post, then ask the fence post for a bigger budget.
