Escalating Middle East tensions, particularly the Iran conflict, have driven WTI crude oil (CL) prices to $101.22 per barrel as of March 30, representing a 42% monthly surge and the largest supply disruption in market history per IEA analysis. Trader consensus on Polymarket reflects this geopolitical risk premium, with benchmark prices gyrating amid OPEC+'s decision for modest April output boosts despite paused Q1 increments. Recent EIA data shows U.S. crude inventories climbing 3.8 million barrels to 443.1 million for the week ended March 6, signaling building stocks that cap upside, while global demand growth forecasts dipped 210 kb/d y-o-y. As the March contract nears settlement today, volatility persists around ceasefire signals and the next weekly petroleum report.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if, on any trading day, the official CME settlement price for the Active Month (front month) of Crude Oil (CL) futures is equal to or above the listed price by the final trading day of March 2026. Otherwise, the market will resolve to "No".
For CME Crude Oil (CL) futures contracts, the active month is the nearest of the contract months listed.

For example; if the spot month expires on a Friday the next listed contract will be considered the Active Month on the Wednesday prior to the spot month expiration.
Only the Active Month's official settlement price published by CME Group will be considered. Intraday trades, highs, lows, bids, offers, midpoint values, or indicative prices do not count.
Note that the settlement price may differ from the last traded price. CME's methodology to determine the settlement price can vary by commodity and contract.
Only days on which CME publishes an official settlement price for the Active Month will be included. Days without settlement prices (weekends, holidays, or market closures) are ignored.
This market will resolve based on the settlement price as it appears on the CME settlement page at the time it is first published for that trading day, regardless of any later corrections or updates.
