WTI crude oil (CL) futures have surged above $101 per barrel as of March 29, 2026, propelled by escalating Middle East tensions including Strait of Hormuz disruptions and Iran conflict risks that have added a substantial geopolitical risk premium to pricing. This rally extends a sharp uptrend from mid-$90s levels earlier in March, overriding bearish U.S. EIA crude inventory builds of 6.2 million barrels for the week ended March 13 and OPEC+'s modest output hike announced March 1 amid steady global demand forecasts from IEA's March report. Trader consensus reflects skin-in-the-game bets on sustained supply threats, with Brent benchmarks hitting $115.90; resolution hinges on today's close, ahead of Thursday's EIA weekly data release.

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.
