However, disaster did not occur. Oil prices did surge, but in real terms, they didnt even reach record highs. In 2008, oil prices reached $147 per barrel, equivalent to $224 today. Now, no one expects emergency measures to curb energy consumption, nor is anyone worried about interest rates soaring to 13% or unemployment skyrocketing. The era of what could be called a "long-term oil crisis," from 1973 to 2026, has ended. This will have three profound impacts. First, the importance of the Middle East will significantly decrease. Second, inflation will be contained. The US is likely to see prices remain almost unchanged year-on-year for the next decade or even longer. Third, and most importantly, the global economy will become more stable. The importance of oil as a commodity has been diminishing over the years. Of course, oil remains very important, but it will be much harder for it to dominate headlines again. Its era has passed, and the world will become more stable as a result.Hong Kong stocks opened higher but closed lower, with the Hang Seng Index down 1% and the Hang Seng Tech Index down 1.8%.Most Hong Kong-listed tech stocks declined, with Tencent Music (01698.HK), Bilibili (09626.HK), and JD.com (09618.HK) falling by more than 4%, Kuaishou (01024.HK) falling by more than 3%, and Xiaomi Group (01810.HK), Alibaba (09988.HK), and Tencent Holdings (00700.HK) falling by more than 2%.

WTI Price Analysis: Gains $78.00 in weekly rising wedge

After falling from a one-week high to the first daily loss in four on Thursday, WTI crude oil rises to $78.00 on Friday. Sluggish MACD signals and steady RSI may explain black gold's recent inaction (14).

 

Oil sellers remain optimistic following the previous day's pullback from the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the quote's downturn from January 23 to February 03.

 

However, energy bears will need confirmation from the 200-Hour Moving Average (HMA) level of $76.96 after a clear break of the $77.30 support.

 

After that, the monthly bottom of $72.50 can buffer the south run to the December 2022 multi-month low around $70.30. The $70.00 round figure might push WTI sellers above $70.30.

 

WTI rebound might also target the $78.80 Fibonacci retracement obstacle again.

 

Even if the commodity crosses the $78.80 barrier, the wedge's top line, at least $79.30, will precede the $80.00 psychological magnet to challenge the quote's additional rise.
