Oil prices fell to their lowest levels in more than three months on Monday after the United States and Iran announced an agreement aimed at ending the conflict and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, according to CNN.

Brent crude dropped about 5% to below $83 per barrel, while U.S. crude fell more than 5% to around $80. The report said both benchmarks have lost roughly $10 per barrel over the past week as investors welcomed signs of easing tensions.

President Donald Trump said the agreement is complete and indicated the U.S. blockade of Iranian ports would be lifted. Iranian officials also signaled support for reopening the vital shipping route, though disagreements remain over the next phase of negotiations.

⚠️
Analysts cautioned that lower prices may not last. According to energy experts, mines must still be cleared, damaged infrastructure repaired, and oil production restored before global supply flows fully normalize.

Stock markets also rallied on hopes that the agreement could stabilize energy markets and reduce economic uncertainty. However, experts warned that long-term peace and sustained energy recovery will depend on successful implementation of the deal.
