Oil Tumbles 5% as US-Iran Deal Optimism Overlaps With Deep Uncertainty

Brent crude fell roughly 5% on 24 May after Iranian state TV reported an unsigned draft framework on Hormuz. The same afternoon, the US president said no deal existed, and prediction markets were giving the agreement only a 16% chance of completion by month-end.

Desk note: Wire coverage led with the price action. Monexus foregrounds the gap between a draft framework, an unsigned memorandum, and a settled agreement, because that gap is what determines whether Friday's 5% decline is the start of a sustained repricing or a reaction to speculation that proves premature. Diplomatic optimism and geopolitical risk are simultaneous facts here, not sequential ones.
