Brent bias flipped 34 times to weak bullish on September 29, 2026
Brent crude has seen both gains and pullbacks as U.S.-Iran developments compete with supply headlines. Gains were linked to a stalemate in diplomacy and renewed war fears with no signs of de-escalation, at times overshadowing Saudi flows and higher Hormuz volume reports. Prices also retreated at times on Saudi supply relief and as investors awaited developments in U.S.-Iran diplomacy.
