It came a day after President Joe Biden returned from Israel where he reaffirmed U.S. support for the country and argued the rocket that landed near a hospital in Gaza earlier in the week probably wasn\u2019t fired by Israel.<\/p>\n<p>Oil prices have risen back above $90. West Texas Intermediate, the U.S. benchmark, was up 1.2% to $90.40 a barrel, having gained more than 3% in the past week. Brent crude, the international standard, added 0.9% to $93.18 a barrel. Gold prices were up 0.7% on Friday to $1,993.30 an ounce.<\/p>\n<p>In separate oil news, the U.S. government said it would buy oil for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, which adds to demand for the commodity. On the other side, a new U.S. agreement with Venezuela to allow more exports in exchange for political reform could eventually add to global supply.<\/p>\n<p>Fears that the Hamas-Israel conflict will escalate are unlikely to abate over the weekend. Oil and gold will continue to be volatile.<\/p>\n<p>Write to Brian Swint at brian.swint@barrons.com<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketwatch.com\/articles\/oil-gold-price-israel-hamas-yemen-missiles-b6c7c5fd?mod=markets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A U.S. warship intercepted missiles coming from Yemen on Thursday, adding to tensions in the Middle East after Hamas attacked Israel almost two weeks ago.
