Crude prices held well above 1% gains in Asia on Friday after earlier sinking more than 2% after U.S. fired dozens of missiles into Syria in response to a chemical weapons attack on civilians.

On the New York Mercantile Exchange crude futures for May delivery spiked 1.51% to $52.48 a barrel, while on London’s Intercontinental Exchange, Brent gained 1.33% $55.62 a barrel. The missile strikes came shortly after President Donald Trump hosted Chinese President Xi Jinping in Florida in talks expected to focus on North Korea’s missile and nuclear programs.
