Oil near $97.50 as Hormuz risks lift inflation concerns; MoneySimpler expands AI trading

Global financial markets are watching inflation risk after Brent crude climbed to about $97.50 per barrel, an increase of roughly 35% since February. The report said the rise was driven by intensifying concerns over disruptions around the Strait of Hormuz.

Investors are also focused on upcoming U.S. employment and inflation data, including the Producer Price Index scheduled for release on Sept. 10, 2026. The report, dated Sept. 7, 2026, framed the oil-price move as a factor in broader market caution.
