Oil prices give back gains as Iran signals openness to talks

The move comes after US forces began a ninth consecutive night of strikes against Iranian targets, according to CNBC.

Oil prices turned lower after earlier gains faded, as Iran said the United States could pursue talks based on national interests, according to CNBC.

The report also pointed to continued escalation on the ground, saying American forces started a ninth consecutive night of strikes against Iranian targets.

CNBC noted the combination of the diplomacy signal and ongoing military action helped keep pressure on crude prices.
