💨 Abstract

Oil prices rose in early Asian trade on Thursday due to concerns about potential supply disruptions in the Middle East, specifically Israel's plans to strike Iran, and increased fuel demand following a storm in Florida. The storm, Hurricane Milton, has driven up gasoline demand in Florida, causing fuel shortages at about a quarter of stations. Additionally, investors remain wary of potential escalation in tensions between Israel and Iran.
