Oil printed around 108 as traders lost hope for a quick Hormuz arrangement ahead of a Gulf-Iran meeting via Oman. [1] This paper printed 108 and the talks, not a corridor on Friday. Sunday's Oman table is still a table. A Friday print is not a Sunday close. Print 108 as Friday's. Do not print a deal. No new corridor paper is in Sunday's energy copy.

No new close is in Sunday's energy copy, so Friday's 108 remains Friday's print and not a Sunday deal.
Sunday recap that pretends 108 became a corridor is a feed, not the FT.
No Sunday close is in Sunday's oil copy.
No an oil deal appears in Sunday's fetched copy, so the file stands as printed.
Friday's 108 was a print, not a deal: no signatures moved barrels. Oil-adjacent Sunday copy watches for follow-through that hasn't come. A number without a contract is just a quote.

Quotes flicker; contracts bind. Sunday's quote flickers. Friday's print stands till Monday trades.

Unbound quotes stay quotes; Sunday has no contract. Friday's 108 moved no signatures. Follow-through never arrived.

Quotes flicker; contracts bind. Sunday's quote flickers. Friday's print stands till Monday trades.

Friday's 108 remains a quote, not a signed Hormuz corridor. Muscat's table is still a table, without a paper. Energy pages on Sunday show no fresh settlement. A figure without a contract moves no cargo of barrels.
Friday's print stands till Monday trades. A figure without a contract moves no cargo. Sunday's quote flickers.

Friday's print stands till Monday trades. Sunday's quote flickers. Sunday's energy pages show no fresh settlement.
