March 10 — U.S. President Donald Trump is set to review plans to curb oil prices as early as Monday, two people familiar with the matter said. Oil prices have surged above $100 a barrel amid the Iran conflict, prompting White House concern that the spike will harm U.S. businesses and consumers — especially ahead of the November midterm elections, where Trump’s Republican Party aims to retain control of Congress. U.S. officials in Washington have been in talks with Group of Seven (G7) counterparts about a joint release of strategic crude reserves, one of several measures under consideration, the sources added. Other options include restricting U.S. oil exports, intervening in oil futures, waiving some federal taxes, and scrapping Jones Act rules requiring domestic fuel to be shipped on U.S.-flagged vessels. Analysts noted that U.S. policy moves will have minimal impact on the global oil market as long as the conflict disrupts shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Markets Insider
