Trump declines to extend US-Iran 60-day ceasefire deal as Brent tops $91 a barrel
The expiration of the US-Iran 60-day ceasefire MoU and Trump's refusal to extend it has intensified geopolitical risk around the Strait of Hormuz, pushing Brent above $91/bbl. Elevated disruption risk supports crude while pressuring risk assets via higher energy input costs and inflation sensitivity. UK equities are flagged lower in the near term as energy-led macro uncertainty rises.
