Oil values have risen above $100 a barrel amid escalating tensions in the Iran-Hormuz situation, with Brent priced at $100.06 and WTI at $94.81. JP Morgan cautions that a complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz could elevate oil prices to $130, resulting in gasoline exceeding $5 in numerous states across the US. Every $10 increase in oil roughly translates to an additional $0.25 per gallon at gas stations nationwide.
