Apr 02, 2026
Crude oil prices could rise to $150 per barrel in an extreme scenario if the ongoing geopolitical tensions persist, potentially prompting global intervention, Vandana Bharti, Research Head - Commodity, SMC Global Securities, told ANI today. "After $130, $150, I think many political alliances will come forward and they will stop it... $150 is itself a very alarming situation, and many things are happening... otherwise, it will be a mayhem," Bharti said.
