Escalation in Middle East conflict alongside tighter U.S. restrictions on Iranian oil sales has revived near-term supply disruption risk, lifting Brent futures ~2% to $75.60. The move reinforces a geopolitical risk premium in energy, raising inflation sensitivity and pressuring rates markets via higher expected input costs. Cross-asset spillovers include FX volatility and softer risk appetite as positioning adjusts to renewed macro and geopolitical uncertainty.

U.S. military strikes on Iran and the removal of waivers for Iranian oil sales have heightened fears of supply disruptions in the Middle East. Brent crude futures rose 2% to $75.60. The moves are being treated as a geopolitically driven supply shock that is directly feeding into global oil benchmarks. The shift is closely linked to price moves across traditional energy assets.
