$BTC 🔥 Oil Alert: Brent Hits $116 as Trump Threatens Iran!
Brent crude surged to $116 a barrel after Donald Trump warned of striking Iran’s oil wells, electricity plants, and Kharg Island if a deal isn’t reached. Investors are on edge as Middle East tensions escalate, with Houthi rebels firing missiles and 3,500 US troops arriving in the region.
The spike in oil prices is hitting global markets—Asia’s stock indices plunged while Europe and the US showed cautious gains. Petrol in the UK now averages 152p a litre, the highest in over two years. Analysts warn prices could skyrocket to $150–$200 per barrel if the conflict continues.
“Above $120–130, a global recession could loom,” says Swissquote senior analyst Ipek Ozkardeskaya. The world watches nervously as energy security and geopolitics collide.#ADPJobsSurge
