Article Context
A slide in oil prices lifted stocks and bonds on hopes that more tankers will be able to traverse the Strait of Hormuz, with signals that rich nations could release more stockpiles also helping sentiment. While traffic through Hormuz remains at a near-standstill amid the Iran war, US crude settled at $93.50 as a trickle of vessels started to find a way through the oil route.
