Brent Crude at $90 in Oil & Companies News 11/03/2026 Brent crude futures reversed early losses to trade 2% higher, approaching $90 per barrel on Wednesday, after falling about 11% in the previous session. Traders continue to monitor the conflict with Iran, with uncertainty lingering over when it might end. US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said yesterday it “will be our most intense day of strikes”. Major Middle Eastern producers have collectively reduced output by more than 6 million barrels per day as the Strait of Hormuz remains effectively shut.
