Crude Oil Inclined Down

November 21, 2022

By RoboForex Analytical Department

The crude oil market began the week with a crash. A Brent barrel is falling to 86.75 USD and looks very week.

Curiously, nothing has changed on the hews horizon.

On the one hand, the market is reacting negatively to the news about the coronavirus spreading in China. The country remains the main importer of crude oil. Any COVID-19 bound limitations might shorten the industrial demand for energy carriers. On the other hand, investors are caring for the comments of the US Federal Reserve System about further interest rate strategy.

Moreover, information has spread about a surplus of crude oil at European oil plants.

All this taken together is dragging the barrel price down.
