WTI retreats towards $72.00 as US Dollar weighs on Oil price, PMIs, API inventories eyed

  • WTI crude oil fades week-start rebound amid inverse correlation with US Dollar.
  • IEA warns about Oil supply shortage in H2 2023, output from Canada, OPEC+ also drop.
  • US Dollar cheers hawkish Fed bets, optimism about debt ceiling despite no deal in sight.
  • API’s weekly inventory data, risk catalysts and monthly PMIs eyed for clear directions.

WTI sellers approach intraday low as a firmer US Dollar joins mixed sentiment in the Oil market to weigh on the quote amid early Tuesday. In doing so, the black gold price reverses from an intraday high to $72.15 by the press time.

It’s worth noting that the black gold previously cheered hopes of a reduction in the Oil price output in the second half (H2) of the year, backed by statements from the International Energy Administration (IEA). “The International Energy Agency (IEA), meanwhile, warned of a looming oil shortage in the second half of the year when demand is expected to eclipse supply by almost 2 million barrels per day (bpd), the Paris-based agency said in its latest monthly report,” per Reuters.

Also likely to have favored the Oil price could be the wildfires in Canada and geopolitical tension between the West and Russia, not to forget the OPEC+ output cut accord. Reuters said, “Total exports of crude and oil products from OPEC+ plunged by 1.7 million bpd by May 16, JP Morgan said, adding that Russian oil exports will likely fall by late May.”

Elsewhere, China faced the heat of the Group of Seven Nations (G7) summit in Hiroshima as the global leaders discussed ‘de-risking’, or weaning themselves off an over-reliance on Chinese imports at the summit. On the same line, Russia is also at the loggerheads with the West due to its war with Ukraine and hence challenges the energy market.

Alternatively, the firmer US Dollar and hawkish hopes from the Federal Reserve, as well as economic fears surrounding China, weigh on the Oil price of late. US Dollar Index (DXY) grinds higher around 103.30 during the two-day uptrend even as US President Joe Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy failed to offer a deal to avoid the debt ceiling expiry during the latest negotiations. The reason for the greenback’s run-up could be linked to the policymakers’ optimism of reaching an agreement to avoid the US default.

On the other hand, the recent run-up in the odds favoring the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) 0.25% rate hike in June, as well as no rate cuts in 2023, also underpin the US Dollar’s latest run-up and weigh on the WTI crude oil.

While the firmer US Dollar challenges the demand-supply matrix and weighs on the Oil price, today’s PMIs from the key global economies and weekly industry inventory report for the black gold, namely from the American Petroleum Institute (API) will be crucial for clear directions.

Technical analysis

Failure to cross the 21-DMA joins a downside break of a two-week-old ascending support line, close to $72.55 at the latest, to keep the WTI crude oil bears hopeful.

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
