WTI Price Analysis: Oil prices rise after NFP data

  • WTI crude oil surges as US labor market data fuels demand optimism.
  • Nonfarm payrolls miss expectations, but wage growth remains strong.
  • Labor force participation rate edges higher, supporting energy demand outlook.

The West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil prices climbed on Friday to around $70.80, buoyed by renewed optimism over energy demand following the latest US labor market report. While Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) data revealed a weaker-than-expected 143K job additions in January, the overall labor market resilience and steady wage growth helped drive crude prices higher.

Despite the soft job additions, the US unemployment rate held firm at 4%, aligning with expectations. Wage growth remained solid, with average hourly earnings rising 0.5% month-over-month, in line with forecasts, while the year-over-year figure reached 4.1%, surpassing the anticipated 3.9%. Additionally, the labor force participation rate ticked up to 62.6%, reinforcing expectations of sustained economic activity and energy consumption.

It worth noticing that weak economic dat might prompt the Fed to consider sooner rate cuts and hence economic activity might flourish which could push demand for oil higher and benefit the price.

WTI crude oil is trading above $70.50 per barrel, testing a key resistance level at $71.00. A successful break above this threshold could pave the way for further gains, while immediate support lies at $70.00. Traders will closely monitor upcoming macroeconomic developments for additional market direction.

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.
