Crude oil prices were marginally down on December 4 in early Asia trade. Brent crude futures declined by 2 cents, or 0.03 percent, and touched $73.60 per barrel. Similarly, the U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures followed the trend, dropping by 3 cents, or 0.04 percent, and moved to $69.91. However, on the previous day, Brent crude showed a major gain of 2.5 percent over the span of two weeks.
The U.S. crude stockpile saw an oversupply of 1.2 million barrels in the last week. Similarly, gasoline also had an oversupply of 4.6 million barrels in the last week, including Thanksgiving Day, when demand is usually higher due to increased travel. OPEC+ countries are also looking to remove the supply restrictions on crude oil. However, rising tensions in West Asia could play a deciding factor in the OPEC+ decision.
Rahul Kalantri, VP Commodities, Mehta Equities said,”We anticipate crude oil prices to remain volatile this week due to fluctuations in the dollar index, upcoming OPEC+ meetings, and ongoing geopolitical tensions. Crude oil has support at $69.20-$68.55 and resistance at $70.65-$71.25 in today’s session. In INR, crude oil finds support at Rs 5,855-5,790, with resistance at Rs 5,990-6,040.”
