Houthi Attacks Drive Brent Oil Prices Higher
📊 BRENT — Piyasa Yorumu
▲ up · 65%News of Houthi attacks has heightened supply concerns, providing upward support for Brent oil prices. Technical indicators also reinforce this view: the RSI at 66 is approaching overbought territory but is not yet at dangerous levels, while the MACD remains positively above its signal line. The price trading above the 20- and 50-day moving averages confirms the short-term uptrend. However, following a 4% gain in the last 24 hours, short-term profit-taking may occur, so excessive optimism should be avoided. Although the overall upward trend persists, the $93 level should be monitored as a resistance point.
📊 XOM — Piyasa Yorumu
■ neutral · 60%Although Houthi attacks have driven oil prices higher, Exxon Mobil (XOM) stock has already gained 4.3% in the last 24 hours, with its RSI reaching 79, entering overbought territory. This suggests limited upside potential in the short term. The MACD remains positive but is approaching the signal line, which could indicate weakening momentum. Technically, the stock is trading above its 20- and 50-day moving averages, but given overbought conditions and the geopolitical news being priced in, a sideways trend can be expected.

📊 BP — Piyasa Yorumu
■ neutral · 60%Although news of Houthi attacks has pushed oil prices higher, BP's stock has entered overbought territory with an RSI of 73. This suggests that upward movement may be limited in the short term. The MACD remains positive, but its approach toward the signal line could indicate weakening momentum.
