Saudi Arabia Restarts EastWest Pipeline Oil Exports After Repairs
Saudi Arabia's resumption of exports via the EastWest pipeline restores partial Red Sea flows after drone-related outages, easing some supply-disruption risk. However, crude remains supported by heightened Middle East security concerns and fresh hurdles in U.S.-Iran diplomacy, keeping risk premia elevated. Cross-commodity moves are mixed: European gas is lower, while gold and base metals weaken amid firmer rate-hike expectations and broader risk repricing.
