Oil prices fall after Trump says new talks with Iran will begin Monday

Oil prices are falling overnight Monday after President Donald Trump's announcement that new talks with Iran would begin on Monday.

The price of Brent crude fell by just over 6 percent overnight when the US announced that there would be no new attacks on Iran at this time.

The hope is that new talks will lead to a definitive reopening of the Strait of Hormuz so that the oil ships stranded in the Persian Gulf can move on.
