WTI advances to near $83.10 due to expected supply constraints stemming from OPEC+ cuts

WTI oil price extends its winning streak due to the likelihood of OPEC+ retaining output policies.
Ukrainian drone stacks have rendered offline nearly 1 million bpd of Russian Crude processing capacity.
Crude oil demand could be enhanced due to the recent expansion in Chinese manufacturing activity.

West Texas Intermediate (WTI) oil price is on an upward trajectory for the third successive session, with the commodity trading around $83.10 per barrel during Asian trading hours on Monday. The sustained increase in Crude oil prices is attributed to anticipated supply constraints stemming from production cuts by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and their allies (OPEC+).

Investors are eagerly awaiting the OPEC+’s joint ministerial meeting scheduled for this week. It is anticipated that during the meeting, OPEC+ will assess market fundamentals and members' adherence to production targets, with widespread expectations for the retention of current output policies.

Furthermore, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak emphasized on Friday that oil companies should prioritize reducing output over exports in the second quarter to align with OPEC+ production targets. He also stated that there is no necessity for Russia to impose export bans on diesel to address escalating prices and potential fuel shortages following drone attacks that disrupted refining capacity.

Ukrainian drone strikes have crippled numerous Russian refineries, leading to a decline in Russia's fuel exports. These attacks have rendered nearly 1 million barrels per day of Russian Crude processing capacity inactive.

Official data revealed that Chinese manufacturing activity witnessed its first expansion in six months in March, enhancing the outlook for Crude oil demand in the world’s leading Crude importer. Analysts at Goldman Sachs noted that oil demand in Europe exceeded expectations, with a year-on-year increase of 100,000 barrels per day (bpd) recorded in February, contrasting with their earlier projection of a 200,000 bpd decline for 2024.

Bitcoin lost its 200-day average — but the exit started three sessions before the CPI Bitcoin fell 2.5% to about $73,400 on 11 November, an 11-week low, breaking its 200-day moving average near $73,100. The 24-hour liquidation tally reached $632 to $705 million, roughly 82% of it longs. But spot ETF outflows began three sessions earlier and USDT's market cap has shrunk $6.6 billion in 60 days — the leveraged length left before the inflation print did. A double top at 81,890 and 81,080 leaves a measured target of 69,366.

Nvidia slid 7.7% after hours while AMD and Broadcom rose — the AI trade changed hands, it didn't break Nvidia closed Wednesday at 173.73, up 2.87%, then fell as much as 8.1% to 159.44 after reports that its board was preparing for a possible leadership change. The same session, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rose 5.7% with all 30 components higher, CoreWeave jumped 24.7% on 168% revenue growth, and Micron added 11.9%. If AI demand were being repriced, AMD and Broadcom would not be bid. This is a governance discount on one name, and 204.54 — the 200-day average — is the level that settles it.

Gold hit a one-year low while central banks bought 321 tonnes — the sellers were never the ones you think Spot gold closed at 3,876 on Thursday, down 2.8% and its lowest close in more than a year, with an intraday low near 3,852. The dollar is at a 19-month high of 103.21 and the 10-year yield is at 5.10%, so the price move is easy to explain. What is harder to explain is who sold: central banks bought 321 tonnes in Q3, the PBoC added for a 24th straight month, ETF holdings are near a record 4,256 tonnes, and roughly 95% of the futures selling came from non-reportable and sovereign-type accounts rather than hedge funds. This piece separates the two books that have to balance.

Brent rose 3.3% and US crude stocks built 4.66 million barrels in the same week Brent January settled at 95.82, up 3.3%, and WTI at 88.74, up 2.55%, after the US signalled it would not pursue a deal with Iran and attacks on Gulf shipping continued. In the same week, EIA data showed US crude inventories rising 4.657 million barrels against expectations of a 1.1 million draw, with gasoline up another 1.799 million. OPEC output also rebounded 1.96 million barrels a day to 27.16 million in October, led by Saudi Arabia at 10.56 million. This piece separates the geopolitical premium from the physical balance and lays out where each side of the trade is anchored.
