Oil prices ticked higher in early Asia trade on Monday, rebounding from the previous session's decline driven by optimism over potential U.S.-Iran diplomatic discussions. The modest gain reflects market caution as investors weigh geopolitical tensions against the possibility of de-escalation. Traders remain watchful for further developments in the Middle East, where any breakthrough in negotiations could provide sustained support for crude markets.
The price movement underscores the persistent uncertainty clouding broader hopes for regional stability.
