The outlook in Brent futures remains bearish and the contract found resistance at yesterday’s intraday high - short-term gains are considered corrective. The recent break of $89.06, Jul 14 low and a bear trigger highlights a continuation of the broader downtrend that started early June. A resumption of weakness would open $86.54, the Mar 9 low. Firm resistance is seen at the 50-day EMA which intersects at $95.55.
