Movement Alert|PetroChina Falls 3.07% in Regular Trading, US-Iran Negotiation Progress Drags Oil Prices and Weighs on Energy Stocks

Market Focus06-03

On June 3, PetroChina (00857.HK) fell 3.07% in regular trading, trading at HKD 10.43/share, with trading volume of HKD 320 million. The decline came as international oil prices remained under significant pressure following progress in US-Iran negotiations.

On the news front, US-Iran negotiators reached consensus on a memorandum of understanding, pending final approval from US President Trump, pushing international crude prices sharply lower. Brent crude settled at $91.12/barrel, down 12.00% week-over-week, while WTI crude fell 9.57% to $87.36/barrel. Although renewed uncertainty briefly lifted oil prices as reports indicated agreement text exchanges were still ongoing with nothing finalized, the broader downward trend in crude has continued to pressure integrated oil and gas stocks.

Within the Integrated Oil and Gas sector, the overall sector showed weakness. Among individual stocks, SINOPEC CORP fell 0.91%, reflecting continued sector-wide selling pressure as market capital rotated toward technology stocks and away from energy names.
