The current geopolitical instability in the Middle East has triggered shockwaves through international stock markets, propelling the price of Brent crude and the Kerosene Spot Price to alarming highs.
From London to Singapore, traders and individuals are watching the soaring prices with increasing anxiety, fearing that the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz could permanently dry up global supply.
This frenzy is reflected in a surge in online searches, as economic players try to anticipate the impact of this crisis on air travel costs and fuel prices.
Kerosene, a fuel particularly sensitive to fluctuations in its raw material price, is under unprecedented pressure, forcing airlines to revise their fares in real time to survive this volatility.
In this context of overheating, the energy market is becoming a barometer of global fear, where every diplomatic statement sends financial indices tumbling and reshapes growth forecasts for 2026.
