$Marathon Petroleum(MPC.US) Overnight crude oil benchmark prices surged significantly. Brent crude futures rose more than 1.5% to $71.44 per barrel, and WTI crude increased 1.7% to around $66 per barrel, primarily driven by reports of a potential escalation in US-Iran conflict, which heightened concerns about supply disruptions. As an integrated energy and chemical producer highly dependent on oil prices, the company benefited from this upward momentum, extending its 4.52% gain from yesterday's regular trading session. With pre-market volume amplified to nearly 100,000 shares, its stock price hit a new 52-week high. Traders noted that as commodity prices rose, the stock also broke through a key resistance level.$Valero Energy Corp New(VLO.US) $ExxonMobil(XOM.US)
