Free AccessWTI Looks Below $100 In Asia
WTI has managed a marginal extension through Thursday’s low during Asia-Pac dealing and last sits a little over $0.50 softer on the day, just below $100 (after the level provided support on Thursday), while Brent futures have also extended Thursday’s move lower, losing a handful of cents, with $104.00 providing a bit of a floor for now.
- A reminder that Thursday’s sharp losses were a product of the sizeable U.S. SPR stock release initially touted in Asia-Pac hours, and later confirmed by the Biden administrations (1mn bpd set to be released over a ~6 month period), with the prospect of further action from the IEA later today (the Biden admin have flagged the potential for another 30-50mn bbl release on the part of the IEA).
- While most of the sell-side acknowledge a fairly short-term downside risk/bias to prices on the above, most continue to flag the structural support for crude, especially with OPEC+ maintaining their gradual approach when it comes to providing an uptick in production.
- Elsewhere, Russian energy pricing matters, the continued Russia-Ukraine conflict and the resumption of talks between the two nations (in an online format), set for Friday, provide plenty of other headline risk to keep an eye on.
