The negotiations are psyops to fool the markets that there is gonna be a ceasefire in the next hours. It is to stall Iran and make sure the insider trading and market manipulations yield millions or billions in profits for trump cronies. trump does not want 120 dollar oil, especially when losing.
The US is not sure their ground invasion is going to work, that is why the fake news was "Saudis pushing trump to stay in the war". Looking for a scapegoat if it fails
The current oil price, at around $100, suits the US perfectly, especially if it can be maintained for several years.
Before the US did 9/11, oil prices were below $30/barrel and the US was dependent on Middle Eastern oil imports. After they launched the wars in the Middle East, prices went up enough to make US oil extraction profitable and they became self-sufficient.
Recently, after the conquest of Venezuela with the largest oil deposits in the world, oil industry leaders told Trump that at $65 investment in Venezuela wasn’t feasible. With prices at $100 it becomes profitable. If prices can be kept at that level, the world’s biggest deposits will be available to sustain US consumption for decades after its own oil runs out.
Therefore, $100/barrel oil is perfect for the US, but not high enough to help Iran in stopping the US from attacking it.
