  • Brent JUL 24 down 0.2% at 84.05$/bbl
  • WTI JUL 24 down 0.2% at 79.68$/bbl
  • However, crude remains within yesterday’s range and is up around 2.7%, with sentiment overall remaining supportive ahead of an expected rollover in OPEC+ output cuts.
  • USD: The extension lower for major equity indices and higher long-end treasury yields continue to underpin the greenback bid on Wednesday. With risk sentiment notably dented, emerging market currencies are notably feeling the pinch.
