June 7th - According to CNBC, citing three OPEC+ sources, OPEC+ will agree on Sunday to raise its oil production targets for the fourth time in just a few months, despite the ongoing conflict between the US and Iran hindering several member countries from increasing oil production. The seven core OPEC+ members increased their production quotas by nearly 600,000 barrels per day between April and June. In fact, the organizations production has already declined significantly due to export cuts by Gulf members. According to OPEC data, average production in April was 33.19 million barrels per day, down from 42.77 million barrels per day in February. Sources say the seven members are likely to decide on Sunday to raise their production targets by approximately 188,000 barrels per day starting in July, the same increase as in June.June 7 – From June 5 to 7, a delegation of Chinese entrepreneurs organized by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) visited Belarus to further implement the important consensus reached by the two heads of state, strengthen practical cooperation between China and Belarus, and promote the continued high-level development of the all-weather comprehensive strategic partnership between the two countries.

In a risk-on environment with a weaker US dollar, WTI consolidates weekly losses above $83,000

The price of WTI crude oil is higher for the second day in a row while paring the weekly losses at the eight-month low on Friday during the Asian session. However, by the time of publication, the black gold has reached a new intraday high of around $83.50.

 

Recent news reports from the US Treasury Department regarding the oil price cap appear to have helped drive up energy prices together with stronger sentiment and a weaker US dollar. According to the US Treasury source, "the oil price cap should be set above the marginal production cost, taking into account past Russian oil prices."

 

In other news, stronger sentiment and slow US Treasury yields cause the US Dollar Index (DXY) to fall intraday by 0.55%, to 109.05 at the latest. It's interesting to see that after a solid day, the US 10-year Treasury yields are still stuck around 3.32%, while the S&P 500 Futures tracks Wall Street's gains at approximately 4,020.

 

Recent market sentiment appeared to be aided by remarks made by US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, which suggested that trade relations between the US and China were set to improve. The market's attitude also appeared to have been aided by recently stronger US statistics and expectations that global central bankers will be able to offset the shock caused by inflation with a comprehensive strategy and higher rates. The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) article, on the other hand, raises some concerns about the future of China's technological enterprises and casts some doubt on the optimism.

 

A price document examined by Reuters on Friday revealed that Kuwait has decreased the official selling prices for its oil grades for the month of October from the previous month. Before the present program ends in October, US Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said the administration of US President Joe Biden is considering whether additional releases of crude oil from the country's emergency stockpiles are necessary. Prior to that, a Department of Energy official reportedly told Reuters that the White House was only considering releasing the 180 million barrels from the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) that the president had already stated.

 

It should be highlighted that the recent decline in China's inflation data, coupled with the hawkish central bank activities, presents a challenge to oil purchasers. Both China's Producer Price Index (PPI) and Consumer Price Index (CPI) show unfavorable results for August. However, compared to 2.8% market expectations and 2.7% in the prior year, the headline CPI declined to 2.5% YoY, and the PPI fell to 2.3% from 3.1% projected and 4.2% in the preceding year.
