Hello everyone, have a nice day, I hope all members of the FPA community remain healthy and full of prosperity and peace.
WTI oil prices today recorded a small increase of 0.1% before the OPEC monthly report which will be delivered today. Last month's report from OPEC expected global demand to increase in anticipation of rising transportation fuel consumption and holiday driving.
Even though it still failed to reach the 80 price level on Monday, the increase in oil prices from a low of 77.37 to a high of 79.03 provided a positive impact to the oil market.
Tensions in the Middle East have not shown any signs of a ceasefire and there could even be a more serious escalation of war.
The market is now waiting for US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data on Wednesday to see whether the higher-than-expected inflation recorded in the first quarter continues into April. This data is important for estimating the possibility of the Fed cutting interest rates or holding interest rates high.
