WTI crude futures climbed above $95 a barrel Thursday, reaching $95.003 as of 10:46 a.m. ET (14:46 UTC) and marking a 3.08% gain for the day.

The move places oil prices at a level closely watched by broader markets, including investors tracking inflation and interest-rate expectations. Energy prices can also shape risk sentiment across crypto markets, making the jump relevant beyond commodities.

The latest move came as WTI futures pushed through the $95 threshold on Sept. 24.
