Stocks fall as Strait of Hormuz tanker attacks push Brent above $101 a barrel

AI Market Summary
Brent crude moved above $101 as tanker attacks in the Strait of Hormuz and broader Middle East tensions raised near-term supply disruption risk, offsetting the market's awareness of rising supply elsewhere. The geopolitical premium is tightening financial conditions for risk assets, weighing on equities while increasing volatility across energy-linked markets and inflation-sensitive assets.

Brent crude, the international oil benchmark, rose above $101 per barrel on Wednesday morning after tanker attacks in the Strait of Hormuz intensified in recent days. The UK Maritime Trade Operations has logged nine incidents so far this month. A Saudi-led coalition said it intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile launched by the Houthis toward Khamis Mushait in Saudi Arabia. Rising Middle East tensions offset an increase in supply, lifting oil prices.
