We plan to establish a "European Housing Union" and hold a high-level summit on European housing issues.Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov: The Russian Federation has completely liberated Konstantinovka (located in the central Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine).July 4th - A Reuters survey showed that OPEC crude oil production rebounded sharply in June, increasing by approximately 3.3 million barrels per day to 19.43 million barrels per day, a significant rebound from the more than two-decade low reached in May, but still far below quota levels. This production increase was mainly driven by the resumption of supply from Gulf countries, with Kuwait seeing the largest increase, followed by Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq. Nigeria and Libya also saw slight increases in production. The UAE withdrew from OPEC on May 1st and is no longer included in the statistics. The report noted that the previous war with Iran and the de facto blockade of the Strait of Hormuz had caused supply disruptions, but the subsequent lifting of restrictions on ships at Iranian ports by the United States helped to restore some production. Although OPEC+ had planned to increase production in June, it could not be fully implemented due to the war. Overall, global crude oil supply is recovering, but has not yet returned to normal levels.Iranian Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf: The United States must "accept the established realities in the trade arena."Hang Seng Index futures closed down 0.2% at 23,253 points in overnight trading, a discount of 97 points.

Crude Oil Price Forecast – Crude Oil Markets Continue to Pull Back

WTI Crude Oil Technical Analysis

The West Texas Intermediate Crude Oil market has declined dramatically during the trading session on Thursday to break down below the $107 level. At this point, it appears like the market is going to test the big trend line from previously, and so I think it’s probably only a matter of time until we see substantial movement one way or the other. If we do break down below the uptrend line, the next target will be the $100 mark. Breaking below that level then opens up the chance of entirely shifting the trend. It is worth mentioning that the rest of the commodities markets have suffered a blow to the face, therefore oil is the “last man standing.” 

Brent Crude Oil Technical Analysis

Brent markets definitely appear quite similar, since they are challenging the uptrend line beneath which is closer to the $107 level. If we break down below there, then the Brent market is expected to travel to be $100 level where it will start to tangle with the 200 Day EMA. Breaking down below that of course would be pretty bad as well, setting off what would officially be termed a “downtrend.”

 

On the other side, if any one of these markets rebounds off the uptrend line, then it appears like they are going to try to save themselves. That being said, the previous couple of days have seen a genuine shift in momentum, and it does imply that more problems is on the way. Consequently, I am not too enthusiastic about holding crude oil at the moment. The markets are simply way too risky.
