Predicted for 15. July 2026
·
Based on: Ongoing Event
WTI crude was trading at $79.56/bbl on July 14, 2026 – roughly $2.56 above the prediction threshold. The US naval blockade of Iran entered into force at 4 pm ET on July 14 (US Central Command), effectively restricting ~20% of global oil supply; Brent subsequently rose above $83/bbl. A drop below $77 by July 15 would require a daily decline of more than 3.3% – historically exceptional under these geopolitical conditions. No direct Polymarket market for WTI at $77 on July 15 identified; calibration based on current price and blockade-driven risk premium.
