Trend Analysis:
As formal trading resumes after the holiday, West Texas Intermediate opened at $71.00. Oil futures have been nearly unchanged to kick off the new year, giving up sharp gains seen last week after an Iranian warship entered the Red Sea. That action heightened tensions and fears of crude-supply disruptions sparked by attacks on shipping by Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen.
