Brent crude tumbled from around $110 a barrel to below $94 in early trading.
Donald Trump and Iran agreed to a ceasefire just 90 minutes before a US-set deadline.
KEY POINTS
- Brent crude oil prices dropped sharply from $110 to below $94 per barrel after the deal.
- UK fuel prices remain high despite the oil price drop, increasing pressure on forecourts to lower prices.
- The ceasefire has reduced the immediate risk of escalation and boosted global stock markets.
- Reopening the Strait of Hormuz without Iranian controls is seen as key to further oil price declines.
