Middle East Escalation Fuels Upside Risk to Energy Prices, GS Says -- Market Talk

0259 GMT - Oil markets are pricing in a somewhat higher probability of supply disruptions after the latest escalation in the Iran-Israel conflict, with the geopolitical risk premium estimated at $12, Goldman Sachs analysts say. "While we still assume no significant disruptions to oil and natural gas supply, the downside risks to energy supply and the upside risk to our energy price forecasts have risen." GS notes that the Polymarket prediction market now sees a high chance of Iran disrupting the key Strait of Hormuz shipping lane in 2025. A sustained, very large disruption would likely push oil and European natural gas prices above $110/bbl and EUR100/MWhm, respectively. The economic incentives--including for the U.S. and China--to try to prevent such a disruption are strong, GS says. (fabiana.negrinochoa@wsj.com)
