How the call settles
Front-month crude oil (Brent or WTI) trades at or above $150 per barrel at some point on or before June 30, 2026
Our reasoning
NO on the research record because Front-month Brent's 2026 high was about $120.88-$126.41/bbl on 30 April 2026 and WTI never approached $150; by 30 June 2026 oil was back to about $75/bbl. Crude did not trade at or above $150 on or before 30 June 2026. | NEAR MISS (review 2026-08-08): Same event as 3780: the dated Brent benchmark reached $144.42 on April 7, within ~4% of the $150 call, so the numeric miss is narrow despite front-month futures peakin.... Applied stored rule: Front-month crude oil (Brent or WTI) trades at or above $150 per barrel at some point on or before June 30, 2026.
