How Israel responds to Iran's attack will be key to where oil prices move from here.

The oil market has brushed off Iran's weekend air assault against Israel, with futures trading as much as 1.5% lower on Monday. Where prices go from here, however, depends on how Israel responds. Crude oil futures had already priced in the risk as Iran had telegraphed an attack was looming, according to Maximilian Layton, head of commodities strategy at Citi. U.S.
