Rising supply assisted WTI crude oil to regain traction

Печать

WTI24112020WTI crude oil refreshed daily tops during the first half of the European session, with bulls now looking to build on the momentum beyond the $60.00/barrel mark. The black gold managed to regain positive traction on Tuesday and recovered a part of the previous day's heavy losses to near two-week lows, around the $57.60 region. Renewed worries about rising oil supply receded amid a further easing of lockdown restrictions in the UK and strong economic data from the US.

It is worth recalling that the OPEC+ agreed last Thursday to roll back its production cuts between May and July amid signs of a strong US economic rebound. The announcement coincided with increasing Iranian production and prompted some aggressive selling around the commodity on the first day of a new trading week.
