Oil risk jumps
Oil prices rose on Thursday as markets reacted to another exchange of fire between the United States and Iran and renewed uncertainty over shipping near the Strait of Hormuz. Money.pl reported that WTI crude for July delivery traded at USD 91.12 per barrel, up 1.21 percent, while Brent for August delivery reached USD 94.06, up 1.03 percent. For Poland, the story matters because fuel costs feed quickly into transport, logistics, food prices and industrial margins.
It also complicates central-bank thinking: imported energy inflation can delay monetary easing even when domestic demand is softening. Businesses should read the move less as a one-day commodity story and more as a geopolitical risk premium returning to costs.
