Nil, Baby, Nil; WTI Extends Losses Despite Big Crude Production Drop, Inventory Draw
Oil prices are down for a fourth session in a row this morning even as API reported a drop in US oil inventories and Trump reached a trade deal with Japan that imposes a 15% tariff on imports from Tokyo.
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he’ll discuss a potential extension of the trade truce with China during talks in Stockholm next week.
The discussions can now take on a broader array of topics, potentially including Beijing’s continued purchases of “sanctioned” oil from Russia and Iran, he said.
“We are racing towards the Aug. 1 deadline for reciprocal US tariffs,” said Harry Tchilinguirian, group head of research at Onyx Capital Group.
“Japan deal done, now it is a question of if they pull a rapid deal out of the bag for the EU.”
