Over the past two weeks, international crude prices were swayed by OPEC+’s modest output hike, geopolitical conflicts, and monthly reports from key agencies. While the three agencies diverged in their supply and demand forecasts, all highlighted that supply pressures remain a major concern. Spot market data shows gasoline demand holding firm, but industrial momentum weakening. In the short run, prices remain hostage to geopolitical risks, with no clear directional trend.

Recent international crude price movements have been heavily influenced by the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Middle East tensions, and U.S. political risks, adding to short-term volatility. From a supply-demand perspective, U.S. crude and gasoline inventories continue to decline, while refinery utilization remains elevated, suggesting resilient demand even toward the end of the driving season. Key factors to watch ahead include Federal Reserve policy decisions and OPEC+ production strategy.

Sanction risks have eased, and crude prices came under pressure over the past two weeks. Driving-season demand remained steady and rig counts stopped falling, underscoring solid fundamentals. However, the divergence between IEA and OPEC demand forecasts has widened further, leaving the market without a clear direction.

The recently passed "One Big Beautiful Bill Act” is considered the signature legislative achievement of Donald Trump’s second term. This comprehensive bill integrates tax reform, national defense, border security, social welfare, and energy policy. Key provisions include: extending and expanding TCJA-related tax cuts and investment incentives, significantly increasing defense and border security spending, cutting back on welfare programs such as Medicaid and food assistance, and shifting energy and environmental policy to support fossil fuel development. The bill is projected to boost U.S. real GDP growth to 0.9% in 2026, though its tax cuts and subsidy reductions are expected to intensify social divisions across the country.

Over the past two weeks, oil prices edged higher, supported by tightening supply-demand conditions in the spot market. The continued decline in U.S. rig counts has partially offset the supply pressure from OPEC’s expanded production. Going forward, attention should be paid to tariff policy developments and U.S. refined product demand data.

Over the past two weeks, market trading has centered around the Israel-Iran conflict. Initially, oil prices surged after Iran passed a bill to close the Strait of Hormuz. However, following the announcement of a ceasefire agreement between the two nations, the geopolitical risk premium quickly dissipated, leading to a sharp 15% drop in oil prices.

Over the past two weeks, oil prices have surged by approximately 17%, primarily driven by two major catalysts: the warming of China–U.S. trade negotiations and the outbreak of conflict between Israel and Iran. However, the EIA’s latest data showed a significant and unexpected build in refined product inventories, casting doubt on whether the U.S. driving season is truly boosting demand, and raising concerns for oil prices moving forward.

Over the past two weeks, oil prices have consolidated in a low range. The market has been digesting a mix of Middle East geopolitical risks, expectations of increased OPEC+ output, and fluctuations in U.S. court rulings on tariffs. Although a larger-than-expected drop in EIA inventory temporarily supported prices, increasing supply pressure and concerns about economic growth have weighed on short-term price momentum, leaving oil prices without clear upward drivers.

Over the past two weeks, international oil prices have dropped by approximately 9%. Market confidence was initially shaken by a shift in U.S. trade policy and concerns over the Federal Reserve’s independence. Sentiment later recovered following favorable policy signals. Meanwhile, several OPEC+ countries signaled a willingness to increase output, undermining confidence in previous production cut commitments and intensifying concerns over a potential supply glut. WTI prices even briefly fell below their post-pandemic lows. Although geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and Iran provided short-term support, the overall market remains bearish.
