July 15th, Futures News: Recent escalation of geopolitical tensions has restricted navigation across the Taiwan Strait, increasing market concerns about supply prospects and driving up international crude oil prices. The corresponding crude oil change rate is fluctuating upwards, and the current window for retail price adjustments for refined oil products has opened, providing a positive outlook. Currently, domestic wholesale prices for gasoline and diesel are rebounding, with some regions experiencing significant price increases. Some suppliers and traders are holding back sales or controlling supply, further fueling market upward pressure. In the short term, the increase in wholesale prices may exceed the adjustment in retail prices, potentially narrowing the wholesale-retail price gap. Furthermore, limited actual demand from end-users suggests a rise in risk appetite for purchasing at higher prices.Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi: Food inflation has cooled slightly, but remains high.Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi: I see this as an opportunity to establish a system where the consumption tax rate can be flexibly adjusted.Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi: Food inflation has slowed slightly, but remains at a high level.The chart shows that at 22:00 Beijing time on July 15th, there will be large foreign exchange options contracts for Euro, British Pound, Australian Dollar, Japanese Yen, etc. There are 8 such contracts with strike prices exceeding 1 billion.

WTI price falls below the $76 mark amid altering financial dynamics and global growth concerns

The West Texas Intermediate (WTI) price is unchanged on Tuesday amid a weaker US Dollar and muted risk sentiment. WTI fell to a low of $72.31 on Monday as a result of a strong risk-off environment sparked by the repercussions from Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Signature Banks. Since then, the WTI price has risen significantly as a result of the Federal Reserve's plan to intervene. After reaching a peak of approximately $76 on Monday, the WTI price retreated as the dynamics of the US Dollar shifted.

 

The financial system is being harmed by rising borrowing costs around the world and growth concerns are being raised. The WTI price is in a corrective decline as the narrative of China's reopening does not appear optimistic, as the country has lowered its growth forecast to 5.0%.

 

The SVB debacle exacerbates global growth concerns, as it is interpreted as the first of many financial system dings. Due to rising financing costs, businesses are struggling to make their repayments, which will eventually result in a decline in demand.

 

Despite tightened production and numerous voluntary cuts from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), the WTI price is struggling to surpass $80.

 

Oil prices are influenced by a number of variables, including the US dollar, inflation, OPEC, and global growth concerns. Considering the aforementioned factors, it is difficult to rationalize the directional nature of oil prices, but it appears that the oil market is primarily driven by development concerns.

 

Since these nations are struggling to maintain oil prices above the desired $80 mark, it will also be crucial to monitor the OPEC position on reduced oil prices.
