Tightening fundamentals to drive crude oil higher, despite headwinds – ANZ
FXStreet reports that despite additional oil supply, strategists at ANZ Bank expect further drawdowns in global inventories. Sequential drawdowns in the second and third quarters will firm up prices.
“The outlook for road transportation fuels is improving strongly ahead of the northern hemisphere’s summer driving season. High vaccination rates have seen restrictions ease and mobility increase in the US and Europe. In fact, gasoline demand has now exceeded 2019 levels in many areas. This may be partly offset by weakness in Asia,which is suffering a wave of COVID-19. This should offset concerns of additional Iranian oil hitting the market.”
“OPEC is likely to take a cautious approach at next week’s meeting. We expect the scheduled increase of 840kb/d in July to be ratified. However,the group is unlikely to provide any guidance on output in August. “
“Another 1mb/d of oil would certainly slow the current drain on inventories. This will ultimately limit the price rise. We maintain our year-end forecast of $75/bbl for Brent crude.”
