Oil Prices Dip as Traders Eye U.S. Stockpile Build

Crude oil futures fell on Friday as traders digested reports of a rise in U.S. crude inventories, tempering earlier concerns over supply from the Middle East. Brent settled near $88 per barrel while U.S. WTI traded just below $85. Market sentiment remains cautious, with geopolitical tensions and shifting global demand patterns continuing to drive volatility in energy prices.
