Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, centered on the Strait of Hormuz and U.S.-Iran negotiations, remain the dominant driver of WTI crude oil prices ahead of end-June resolution. Production shut-ins exceeding 11 million barrels per day have triggered sharp global inventory draws, with EIA models projecting Brent averages near $105 per barrel for June amid limited shipping flows. Recent price action near $88–$90 reflects volatility from ceasefire optimism and flare-ups in hostilities, while broader demand weakness and potential supply resumption later in the quarter introduce downside risks. Traders are monitoring any breakthrough in regional talks or OPEC+ signals as key catalysts that could shift the near-term price path before month-end.

For CME Crude Oil (CL) futures contracts, the active month is the nearest of the contract months listed. The active month becomes a non-active month effective two business days prior to the spot month expiration. For example; if the spot month expires on a Friday the next listed contract will be considered the Active Month on the Wednesday prior to the spot month expiration.
Only the Active Month's official settlement price published by CME Group will be considered. Intraday trades, highs, lows, bids, offers, midpoint values, or indicative prices do not count.
Note that the settlement price may differ from the last traded price. CME's methodology to determine the settlement price can vary by commodity and contract.
Only days on which CME publishes an official settlement price for the Active Month will be included. Days without settlement prices (weekends, holidays, or market closures) are ignored.
This market will resolve based on the settlement price as it appears on the CME settlement page at the time it is first published for that trading day, regardless of any later corrections or updates.
The resolution source for this market is the CME Group website — specifically, the daily "Settlement" price for the Active Month of Crude Oil (CL) futures.
