Oil $CL has experienced extreme volatility over the past year as the renewed US-Iran conflict repeatedly shifted market sentiment. After climbing from around $58 to a peak of $119 following the outbreak of war in late February 2026, crude prices have since fallen to about $71.50, roughly 40% below their highs.
