NYMEX crude oil expected to fall to $75.12

Oct 26, 2021 10:59

On Thursday (October 7), international oil prices were under pressure for the second consecutive trading day, and US crude oil inventories unexpectedly increased, triggering concerns about demand. Earlier, OPEC+ has expressed concern that demand and prices may weaken. NYMEX crude oil is expected to fall to $75.12.

GMT+8 14:05, NYMEX crude oil futures fell 0.49% to 77.04 US dollars/barrel; ICE Brent crude oil futures rose 0.04% to 81.14 US dollars/barrel.

ANZ Bank said in a report: “According to EIA data, US commercial crude oil inventories rose last week and gasoline inventories also surged, raising concerns about weak demand.”

The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) said on Wednesday (October 6) that as of the week of October 1, crude oil inventories increased by 2.345 million barrels to 420.9 million barrels, an increase much higher than market expectations of 796,000 barrels. Gasoline inventories unexpectedly soared by 325.6 million barrels, which is expected to decrease by 69,000 barrels; distillate stocks fell by 396,000 barrels, which was less than the expected decrease of 844,000 barrels.

Global oil prices have jumped by more than 50% this year, increasing inflationary pressure, which may slow the recovery of the economy from the new crown epidemic and affect consumer demand. Natural gas and coal prices are also climbing.

Sources said on Wednesday that as oil prices hit multi-year highs, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies (OPEC+) decided earlier this week to stick to a plan to gradually increase oil production, partly because of concerns that demand and prices may weaken.
