Oil extends losses as Iran mediation efforts ease escalation fears
Oil prices extended losses as Iran mediation efforts eased fears of escalation in the region. Fears of renewed US strikes and Hormuz attacks had pushed crude to a five-month high in late October.
May affect: WTI crude oil · Brent crude oil · Energy stocks (XLE)
Lower geopolitical risk premium could weigh on WTI and Brent crude, and on energy stocks such as XLE. The effect may be moderate for crude and weaker for energy equities.
Driven by: Iran mediation ↓
Iran mediation is easing the war-risk premium on oil, after weeks of fears over renewed US strikes and Hormuz attacks. A lower geopolitical risk premium weighs on crude.

Bank of Japan expected to hold rates, but stay hawkish
A CNBC survey finds all respondents expect the Bank of Japan to hold rates this week. Most also see a hike in December or January, as inflation and wages keep rising.
May affect: USD/JPY · Yen · Japan bonds
Markets already price in earlier BOJ tightening. The yen may get support, which could weigh on USD/JPY, while Japanese government bonds could come under pressure.
Driven by: Japan inflation ↑, BOJ guidance ↑
Japan's consumer inflation rose above the BOJ's target in September, and BOJ Deputy Governor Himino signaled readiness to raise borrowing costs. Both keep a December hike alive.
