Over the past two weeks, international oil prices have shown high volatility. The imposition of tariffs by the U.S., China, and Europe raised concerns about declining oil demand, pushing prices to recent lows. Subsequently, the U.S. announced a 90-day suspension of reciprocal tariffs for multiple countries, temporarily boosting market sentiment and prompting a sharp rebound in oil prices. Prices then rose further, supported by OPEC+’s announcement of compensatory production cuts, escalating U.S.-Iran tensions, and positive progress in U.S.-EU trade negotiations.

Since his second inauguration, U.S. President Donald Trump has rolled out a series of tariff measures. As of April 16, 2025, his administration has announced a 90-day suspension of the reciprocal tariff policy unveiled last week. However, negotiations with China remain inconclusive, with effective tariffs on certain Chinese imports now totaling up to 245%. The article outlines a comprehensive timeline of Trump’s tariff actions since reentering office, as well as the current international structure of U.S. trade policy. Despite some reversals, Trump’s overall tariff strategy can be broadly categorized into three main segments: North American trade partners, China, and other countries.

On April 2, President Donald Trump announced a sweeping new trade policy: starting April 5, the U.S. will impose a 10% baseline tariff on all trade partners. Countries deemed to have unfair trade practices will face reciprocal tariffs ranging from 10% to 50%, effective April 9. Taiwan's rate is set at 32%, while China faces a staggering total tariff burden of 104%, including previously implemented levies. This article breaks down the complete tariff schedule, including region-specific rates, product exemptions, and future planned tariffs on key sectors. It also analyzes the global market response, with U.S. stocks tumbling—particularly in the energy sector—and heightened volatility across oil, gold, and other commodities amid escalating trade war fears and rising risk-off sentiment.

Over the past two weeks, international crude oil prices have fallen by approximately 8–9%. Although the U.S. intensified sanctions on Venezuela and Iran—temporarily increasing supply risks and pushing oil prices upward—these gains were quickly reversed as the U.S. announced substantial tariff hikes. This triggered retaliatory measures from major trading partners, dampening global economic sentiment and weakening oil demand expectations. Simultaneously, OPEC+ announced a significant and unexpected expansion of its production plan, further aggravating the supply-demand imbalance and accelerating the drop in oil prices.

Over the past two weeks, international oil prices have fluctuated under the combined influence of economic data, geopolitical tensions, and supply-side factors. Weak U.S. economic data has heightened expectations of interest rate cuts, while slower builds in crude inventories have eased supply pressures, offering support to oil prices. Rising geopolitical risks in the Middle East and the intensification of the Russia-Ukraine conflict have contributed to market volatility. Meanwhile, U.S. sanctions on Iran and OPEC+’s production cut plans have further alleviated concerns over excess supply, ultimately pushing oil prices slightly higher.

Over the past two weeks, oil prices have dropped to their lowest levels this year due to bearish economic data and OPEC+'s announcement of a scheduled production increase. Although Trump's aggressive sanctions policy led to a slight rebound in prices, policy uncertainty remains high, and the overall market is still shrouded in a bearish sentiment.
2025/2/25
Over the past two weeks, oil prices have exhibited significant volatility, driven by geopolitical risks in the Middle East and shifts in supply-demand fundamentals. U.S. sanctions on Iran and an attack on Kazakhstan’s oil pipeline fueled price increases, while rising U.S. crude inventories, progress in Russia-Ukraine peace talks, and the resumption of Iraqi oil exports exerted downward pressure. Market sentiment fluctuated between supply concerns and evolving demand dynamics, contributing to heightened uncertainty in oil price movements.
2025/2/10
Over the past two weeks, oil prices have cumulatively declined by approximately 4% to 5%. This decline is primarily attributed to weak global demand, a significant increase in U.S. crude oil inventories exceeding market expectations, and a lack of clear improvement in crude oil demand prospects. Additionally, the potential for reconciliation in the Russia-Ukraine conflict has reduced geopolitical risks, limiting upward support for oil prices.
