West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil fell for a third-straight session on Thursday but rose off the day's low on uncertain prospects for a potential peace deal between the United States and Iran.WTI crude oil for June delivery closed down US$0.27 to settle at US$94.81 per barrel, after earlier touching US$89.85. July Brent oil was last seen down US$0.67 to US$100.60The drop, which follows on Wednesday's 7% fall for WTI prices, comes amid rising optimism the United States and Iran are closer to a peace deal. However the outlook for a deal is uncertain. The Guardian reported while U.S. President Trump is saying a deal is "very possible", Iranian media are reporting is only reviewing the proposal and considering its response.There is no certainty talks will result in a deal between the two countries that will see a quick reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, the chokepoint for exports from Persian Gulf nations that supplied 20% of the world's daily oil demand.

So far, Tehran's wish list: set out in its 14-point response on May 2, is unchanged: full sanctions relief, release of frozen state assets, ~$270bn in reparations / reconstruction financing ("only way" to end the conflict), and a new multilateral mechanism for the SoH (Strait of Hormuz) that effectively recognizes Iranian sovereignty over it," Ole Hvalbye, a commodities analyst at SEB Research, wrote.
