USO Faces Volatile Oil Prices Amid Hormuz Risks

Watch: Watch for tanker traffic resumption through the Strait of Hormuz, crucial for oil price normalization and USO's near-term performance.

Dennis Kissler of BOK Financial forecasts U.S. and Asia gas prices will drop dramatically by early May if the Strait of Hormuz stays open. If tanker traffic normalizes quickly, WTI crude could fall to around $75 per barrel in coming weeks. Geopolitical risk keeps a premium on oil, with confidence requiring two months of stable conditions to reset.

USO's price moves will hinge on geopolitical developments at Hormuz, balancing between falling crude prices and persistent risk premiums that keep volatility high.
