What will WTI Crude Oil (WTI) hit in May 2026?

The simulation results indicate that the leading outcome for WTI Crude Oil in May 2026 is an increase to $120 per barrel, capturing 26% of the votes. This outcome is driven by a combination of factors including geopolitical instability, supply chain disruptions, and inflationary pressures. Agents like Isabella Rossi and Pat Kowalski, who are pessimistic about global supply chain stability and inflation, heavily influenced this outcome. In contrast, the crowd pricing shows less confidence in this scenario, with only 17% betting on $120, suggesting that the general market may be underestimating the potential for extreme price movements due to geopolitical and economic uncertainties.
