Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky lashed out at the U.S. Embassy on April 5, calling its statement "weak" and failing to blame Russia for the missile attack on the Ukrainian city of Krivyh.On April 5, OPEC+ major members reiterated that they must strictly abide by their oil production quotas after the group unexpectedly announced an accelerated pace of production increases, causing crude oil prices to plummet. According to a statement released by the group on its official website on Saturday, the OPEC+ Joint Ministerial Monitoring Committee (JMMC) noted that some member countries had failed to fully comply with production restrictions and had not further cut production as promised to make up for excess production. These countries were told to submit compensation plans by April 15. OPEC+ shocked the oil market last week when it announced that it would accelerate production increases. Delegates privately said the move was aimed at urging member countries such as Kazakhstan and Iraq to strengthen enforcement discipline.April 5th news: So far, the strong earthquake in Myanmar has caused 3,455 deaths, 4,840 injuries and 214 missing persons.On April 5, after US President Trump announced the "reciprocal tariff" plan, Apples stock price suffered a heavy blow for two consecutive trading days, and its market value shrank significantly. According to the calculation of investment bank Morgan Stanley, the imposition of tariffs on China will increase Apples costs by about US$8.5 billion each year. Reuters quoted analysts as saying that if Apple passes all tariff costs on to consumers, the retail price of iPhone16 Pro Max in the United States will rise from the current US$1,599 to US$2,300 (about RMB 16,750). During Trumps first term, Apple began to promote the diversification of its supply chain, but the Trump administrations plan to impose high "reciprocal tariffs" on Southeast Asian countries will undoubtedly hit Apples supply chain hard.Ukrainian military: Russian troops used cluster weapons in "brutal" attack on Krivelikh.

WTI price falls below the $76 mark amid altering financial dynamics and global growth concerns

The West Texas Intermediate (WTI) price is unchanged on Tuesday amid a weaker US Dollar and muted risk sentiment. WTI fell to a low of $72.31 on Monday as a result of a strong risk-off environment sparked by the repercussions from Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Signature Banks. Since then, the WTI price has risen significantly as a result of the Federal Reserve's plan to intervene. After reaching a peak of approximately $76 on Monday, the WTI price retreated as the dynamics of the US Dollar shifted.

 

The financial system is being harmed by rising borrowing costs around the world and growth concerns are being raised. The WTI price is in a corrective decline as the narrative of China's reopening does not appear optimistic, as the country has lowered its growth forecast to 5.0%.

 

The SVB debacle exacerbates global growth concerns, as it is interpreted as the first of many financial system dings. Due to rising financing costs, businesses are struggling to make their repayments, which will eventually result in a decline in demand.

 

Despite tightened production and numerous voluntary cuts from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), the WTI price is struggling to surpass $80.

 

Oil prices are influenced by a number of variables, including the US dollar, inflation, OPEC, and global growth concerns. Considering the aforementioned factors, it is difficult to rationalize the directional nature of oil prices, but it appears that the oil market is primarily driven by development concerns.

 

Since these nations are struggling to maintain oil prices above the desired $80 mark, it will also be crucial to monitor the OPEC position on reduced oil prices.
