WTI Dips Off 10-Month Highs After API Reports Unexpected Crude Build
Oil extended its rally to a 10-month high as production cuts by leaders of the OPEC+ cartel strain global supplies, a setup that’s projected to create the tightest crude market in a decade in the months ahead.
“The upward momentum is exhausted for now,” said Vandana Hari, founder of Vanda Insights in Singapore.
“Crude needs fresh cues to pick a direction. We may see a holding pattern of around $90 for Brent.”
