Original source

Oil fell in a volatile session, with traders focused on whether US President Donald Trump will soon declare an end to the war in Iran. West Texas Intermediate futures crude slid below $100 a barrel, at one point slumping more than 4.8%, before recovering some of that loss to trade near $99. Tom Kloza, Chief Energy Advisor for Gulf Oil joins Balance of Power to discuss how this conflict will effect oil prices. (Source: Bloomberg)
