Oil climbs 2pct as price drop triggers buying; oversupply worries weigh
- Oil prices climbed about 2.8% on Tuesday after six straight sessions of decline, rebounding in key global markets including Brent and WTI.
- The rebound followed a steep price drop driven by OPEC+ decisions to accelerate production hikes amid concerns of oversupply and trade tensions.
- Supporting factors included the return of Chinese buyers after a five-day public holiday and data showing stronger-than-expected growth in the U.S. Services sector.
- Market strategist Yeap Jun Rong suggested that the modest uptick in oil prices is driven more by market mechanics than by changes in underlying supply and demand, while senior analyst Priyanka Sachdeva observed that buyers likely took advantage of the low prices amid China’s reopening.
- Despite the rebound, analysts caution that persistent headwinds including production increases, tariff-related demand uncertainty, and downgraded forecasts suggest continued price volatility.
