U.S. Crude Oil Rises Amid Trump's Threat to Iran

U.S. President Donald Trump's recent threat to target Iran's energy facilities has led to a 1.3% increase in U.S. crude oil prices, reaching $113 per barrel at the market's opening. According to NS3.AI, Trump initially announced early Sunday that he would focus on Iran's power plants and bridges, setting a deadline for Tuesday at 8:00 PM Eastern Time. This follows a previous two-day ultimatum issued to Iran on March 21, which was later extended to April 6.
