Global oil hits $105 per barrel and bond yields surge
War in the Middle East has disrupted oil supplies and shipping routes, pushing global oil prices above $100 per barrel for the first time since May. A major oil exporter's facilities have been damaged by strikes, and tanker companies are now paying record rates to move oil on longer, safer routes. Stock markets have declined in response to these rising oil prices and concerns about inflation. Analysts warn prices could climb further if the conflict continues.
