Energy markets showed continued strength as WTI Crude Oil futures secured a third consecutive higher session, settling at 66.50. Prices reached the top end of a seven month range, briefly trading above 67 during intraday action. The rally was primarily supported by elevated tensions in the Middle East and the potential for shipping or supply disruptions. Conversely, natural gas futures continued to face pressure, holding just above the 3.00 level after recording their lowest close since October in the previous session. While WTI Crude Oil futures maintain a trend of higher highs and higher lows throughout 2026, natural gas remains near four month lows, highlighting a significant dispersion between the two energy products as the week concludes.
