Oil prices rose 2 per cent on Tuesday as hopes for a deal to end the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran faded, with stark differences between Tehran and Washington on a peace proposal bringing supply concerns again to the fore.
Brent crude futures were up US$2, or 1.9 per cent, at US$106.21 per barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate gained US$2.31, or 2.4 per cent, to US$100.38 by 3:36 a.m. ET. Both benchmarks climbed nearly 2.8 per cent on Monday.
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday the ceasefire with Iran was “on life support,” pointing to disagreements over several demands, such as the cessation of hostilities on all fronts, the removal of a U.S. naval blockade, the resumption of Iranian oil sales and compensation for war damage.
Tehran also emphasized its sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz, through which about a fifth of global oil and liquefied natural gas flows.
“Optimism regarding an imminent (peace) deal seems to be fading again and if we don’t see a deal by the end of May, then upside risks for oil prices are definitely on the table,” said DBS Bank energy sector team lead Suvro Sarkar.
Disruptions linked to the near-closure of the strait have prompted producers to curtail exports, with a Reuters survey on Monday showing OPEC oil output in April fell to its lowest level in more than two decades.
“A genuine breakthrough toward a peace deal could trigger a sharp US$8-US$12 correction, while any escalation or renewed blockade threats would quickly push Brent back toward US$115+,” said Tim Waterer, chief market analyst at KCM Trade.
Saudi Aramco CEO Amin Nasser warned on Monday that disruptions to oil exports through the strait could delay a return to market stability until 2027, with the loss of about 100 million barrels of oil per week.
Elsewhere on the supply front, U.S. crude stocks were forecast by analysts in a Reuters poll to be down by around 1.7 million barrels in the previous week.
The draw comes against “a backdrop of continued strong net waterborne export flows for crude and products, across the next several weeks,” said Walt Chancellor, an energy strategist at Macquarie Group.
Meanwhile, market participants were also keeping a close eye on President Trump’s planned meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Thursday and Friday, after Washington imposed sanctions on three individuals and nine companies for facilitating Iranian oil shipments to China.
Tariffs imposed during the U.S.-China trade war have halted most Chinese imports of U.S. oil and LNG, which were worth US$8.4 billion in 2024, the year before Trump began his second term.
Canada’s main stock index opened lower on Tuesday, tracking losses on Wall Street due to a hotter-than-expected U.S. inflation reading and fading hopes of a U.S.-Iran peace deal.
At 9:30 a.m. ET, the Toronto Stock Exchange’s S&P/TSX composite index was down 0.07 per cent at 34,113.67 points.
In New York, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 35.2 points, or 0.07 per cent, to 49,739.62. The S&P 500 fell 22.2 points, or 0.30 per cent, to 7,390.63, while the Nasdaq Composite dropped 187.1 points, or 0.71 per cent, to 26,087.009 at the opening bell.
U.S. consumer prices rose at a brisk pace for a second straight month in April, pushing annual inflation to its highest level in nearly three years and reinforcing expectations that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates unchanged for longer.
The Consumer Price Index increased 3.8 per cent last month on an annual basis, while economists polled by Reuters had expected a 3.7-per-cent rise.
“We believe the financial markets have been a little slow to appreciate the economic damage that is building with higher prices, oil prices, raw materials, all those things that could accelerate global inflation,” said Doug Beath, global equity strategist, Wells Fargo Investment Institute.
“April had the highest S&P 500 returns since 2020. Obviously, earnings continue to exceed expectations. But I do think even though it (CPI)is a little bit higher than expected, it could be more important because of the fact the negotiations are still in limbo.”
President Donald Trump said a ceasefire with Iran was “on life support” after Tehran rejected a U.S. proposal to end the conflict, keeping oil prices elevated as the key Strait of Hormuz shipping route remained closed.
Although a strong earnings season has helped bolster market sentiment, the lack of progress in negotiations between Washington and Tehran remains a concern for market watchers as surging oil prices fuel worries of higher inflation.
Ahead of the war, traders had expected two rate cuts, per CME Group’s FedWatch Tool, but currently expect the Federal Reserve to keep interest rates steady through the end of the year.
Producer prices and retail sales data are also due this week, with investors turning to macroeconomic cues as the first-quarter earnings season draws to a close.
All three major U.S. stock indexes advanced on Monday, with the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq notching fresh record closing highs, supported by continued optimism around artificial intelligence and the health of Corporate America.
Elsewhere, in Europe at midday, France’s CAC 40 slipped 0.6 per cent, while the German DAX dipped 1.1 per cent. Britain’s FTSE 100 shed 0.5 per cent.
In Asia, Japan’s benchmark Nikkei 225 added 0.5 per cent to finish at 62,742.57. South Korea’s Kospi dropped 2.3 per cent to 7,643.15, in what analysts are categorizing as fallout from overreliance on fraying AI hopes.
“Global equities remain dangerously dependent on a tiny cluster of AI leaders, creating a rally structure that looks powerful on the surface but increasingly fragile underneath,” said Stephen Innes, analyst with SPI Asset Management.
He believes South Korea may be among the first major economies that will undergo what he called “the political redistribution phase of the AI boom.”
Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 dipped 0.4 per cent to 8,670.70. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng lost earlier gains and fell 0.2 per cent to 26,347.91, while the Shanghai Composite lost nearly 0.3 per cent to 4,214.49.

CALGARY – Enbridge Inc. reported a first-quarter profit attributable to common shareholders of $1.67 billion, down from $2.26 billion a year earlier.
The pipeline company says the profit amounted to 77 cents per share for the quarter ended March 31, down from $1.04 per share in the same quarter last year.
The company said the drop was primarily due to non-cash, unrealized changes in derivatives used to manage foreign exchange, interest rate and commodity price risks.
On an adjusted basis, Enbridge says it earned 98 cents per share in its latest quarter, down from an adjusted profit of $1.03 per share in the first quarter of 2025.
The company says its secured capital backlog stood at $40 billion as it sanctioned several projects including the Cone project, an onshore wind facility in Texas that will support a data centre for Meta Platforms Inc.
Enbridge is also going ahead with growth at its Tres Palacios natural gas storage facility and an expansion of its 60 per cent owned Vector Pipeline.

Barrick Mining ABX-T +8.21%increase beat estimates for first-quarter profit on Monday, helped by record gold prices, while the miner also approved a US$3-billion share repurchase program ahead of the planned IPO of its North American Barrick assets.
Gold prices hit record highs during the quarter, averaging US$4,673.5 an ounce, up roughly 63 per cent from a year earlier, as investors sought safe-haven assets amid geopolitical tensions and growing expectations for interest rate cuts.
Rival Newmont NEM-N +3.93%increase also topped estimates for first-quarter profit last month.
While prices have eased slightly in recent weeks following an oil-driven inflation scare linked to the U.S.–Israel conflict with Iran, bullion remains well above year-ago levels.
Barrick’s quarterly average realized price for gold was at US$4,823 per ounce, 66-per-cent higher than a year earlier.
The company’s all-in sustaining costs, an indicator of cost of production, fell 4 per cent in the three months ended March 31 to US$1,708 per ounce.
The Canadian miner posted first-quarter net earnings of US$1.6-billion, more than triple of year-ago levels.
Barrick’s gold production fell 5 per cent during the period to 719,000 ounces.
But the company said it expects to ramp up output at its Loulo-Gounkoto mine in Mali and Goldrush mine in Nevada, U.S. and improved mine sequencing across its Nevada Gold Mines operations in the next quarter. It also sees increased production at its Kibali site in the Democratic Republic of Congo later in the year.
Barrick forecast gold output to rise to between 730,000 and 770,000 ounces in the second quarter and increase further in the second half of 2026.
The miner continued to advance plans for the IPO of North American Barrick, a new entity that will hold some of the company’s flagship assets like Nevada Gold Mines, Pueblo Viejo and the Fourmile project.
Barrick reported an adjusted first-quarter profit of 98 cents per share, beating average analysts’ expectation of 78 cents per share, according to data compiled by LSEG.
