The bullish argument: Doubts surrounding the execution of proposed energy ceasefires between major powers have triggered oil price rallies, with crude remaining well-bid above $100 per barrel as market participants lose confidence in diplomatic resolutions. Recent strikes on Saudi infrastructure have reinforced these doubts, preventing the price relief that would typically accompany peace negotiations.
