受特朗普威胁进一步重创伊朗经济的影响，中东战争结束的前景变得更加渺茫，原油价格周四上涨，布伦特原油收于每桶94美元下方，升至近一个月来的最高水平。特朗普宣布的最新措施意味着，任何允许其金融机构、企业、机场或政府机构协助伊朗的国家，都可能面临美国的经济惩罚。这一进一步孤立伊朗的举措，使霍尔木兹海峡近期重开的前景蒙上阴影。
尽管中东产油国仍在通过“暗航”转运等非常规方式将原油运出波斯湾，但市场对冲突长期化的预期再次推升了油价，并带动柴油、汽油等燃料价格上涨。PVM Oil Associates Ltd分析师Tamas Varga表示：“在当前由消息面主导的市场环境下，特朗普的最新表态正推动油价上涨。”此外，伊朗央行行长Abdolnaser Hemmati周三接受国家电视台采访时证实，在美军持续封锁伊朗港口的情况下，该国石油出口事实上已停止。
截至周四收盘，9月交割的WTI原油上涨2.3%，结算价报每桶87.83美元；10月交割的WTI原油上涨2.9%，结算价报每桶86.83美元；10月交割的布伦特原油上涨2.4%，结算价报每桶93.78美元。
