Probability

78%

Brent crude traded at ~$76.80/barrel on July 10, 2026; the $74.00 threshold is 3.6% below. Polymarket gives a 50% probability of WTI reaching above $80 in July (over $1M in trading volume) — implying a current WTI price of approximately $74–76 (Brent typically $1–3 above). Supporting factors: Iran-US tensions over the Strait of Hormuz (MOU negotiations ongoing), OPEC+ Q3/Q4 2026 production discipline. Risk: global growth concerns and weaker China demand.
