WTI

Trend Theme:The contradiction between supply and demand highlights the tension, the dovish Federal Reserve keeps interest rates unchanged, and oil prices rebound from multi-month lows by more than 1%.

Trend Review:The outlook for oil in 2024 and beyond is even more pessimistic following Wednesday’s COP28 agreement. Speculators have played a major role in this trend, slashing long positions while increasing short positions. Market dynamics have been exacerbated by excessive concerns about oil demand growth, which has had a negative impact on market sentiment.
