Oil prices surged past $100 per barrel on September 9, 2026, as US-Iran military tensions around the Strait of Hormuz and Saudi Arabia's conflict with Houthi rebels disrupted shipping. Asian and London stocks fell in response, with investors anticipating central bank interest rate increases to combat expected inflation.
