Brent oil futures steadied above $90 a barrel on Monday after passing the threshold on Friday, as investors waited to see if the Israel-Hamas conflict draws in other countries.
Brent futures were down 39 cents, or 0.43%, at $90.50 a barrel at 0855 GMT. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude fell 26 cents, or 0.3%, to $87.43 a barrel.
