Oil prices plunged to $89 a barrel Wednesday following reports that the proposed Iran-US peace deal would see the Strait of Hormuz being reopened in just one month.

Crude futures were at more than $107 a barrel just over a week ago.

The new fall, a 5.6% drop, came as the market held out hopes for a peace deal to bring the four-month conflict to an end.
