Oil prices are mixed in early Asian trade amid signs of attacks around the Strait of Hormuz and the G-7 crude-oil release plan.
The U.K. Maritime Trade Operations has reported seven strikes on vessels around the waterway since Sept. 28. On Sunday, it reported another strike, but didn’t specify when the incident happened.
Meanwhile, G-7 major economies have agreed to release 100 million barrels of crude oil and fuel from their emergency stocks and not to restrict exports. Front-month WTI crude oil futures are little changed at $91.15 per barrel; front-month Brent crude oil futures rise 0.4% to $102.66 a barrel.
