Iran-Israel Tensions: Will Oil Rebound or Hit New Low?

The sharp drop in oil prices has also led major Wall Street banks to lower their target prices. Goldman Sachs predicted an average oil price of $76 per barrel in 2025. The bank’s analysts noted that geopolitical risk premiums are limited, with no significant impact currently on Iran's supply facilities. Citigroup also adjusted its Brent crude oil price forecast for Q4, lowering it from the previous $74 per barrel to $70 per barrel. ----------------- Will oil hit new low? Or time to rebound?

$Exxon Mobil(XOM)$ $Occidental(OXY)$  [Miser]  Will oil prices rebound due to these geopolitical strains, or are we heading towards new lows? In my opinion, the mounting tensions are likely to cause oil prices to rebound rather than hit new lows. As of October 2023, relations between Iran and Israel have deteriorated significantly. Incidents ranging from cyber-attacks to skirmishes involving proxy groups have heightened fears of a broader conflict in the Middle East. Given that this region is a crucial hub for global oil production and transportation, any instability here tends to have immediate repercussions on oil markets.

How a war between Israel and Iran could impact oil prices and the whole market?

After the U.S. stock market closed over the weekend, it was suddenly reported that Israel's retaliation plan for the Iranian attack had been implemented. Judging from the time when it occurred, it was obvious that Israel chose to close the financial market because it did not want things to expand. This is related to the approaching time of the U.S. election. Not unrelated. At the same time, the focus of Israel's retaliation is to attack Iran's related military facilities, avoiding crude oil and nuclear facilities, which is lower than market expectations. Therefore, if Iran does not take further actions after Israel's retaliation, the market will return to calm. But the question is, will Iran suck it up?Profound impact on the crude oil marketIf this "retaliation cycle" does not have a stron

Here's how Iran's missile strikes could impact markets

During the National Day, the biggest thing in the external market was that Iran launched a large number of missile attacks on Israel on October 1 in response to a series of previous deaths of Iran's close leaders, which plunged the entire situation in the Middle East into a "cycle of revenge" and once again changed market expectations. The focus is reversed. As everyone in China is still immersed in the joy of the skyrocketing A-shares, there is little attention to the news of the external market. Therefore, it is estimated that except for a few commodities closely related to the external market, other commodities are expected to continue to run after the holiday.·1.

Oil Prices Surge Amid Chinese Stimulus and Middle East Tensions

Overview Oil prices have rallied on the back of supportive news, including China's recent monetary stimulus and heightened concerns over Middle East tensions. As the world’s biggest crude producer, the U.S., braces for another hurricane, crude prices have seen a sharp upward movement. However, market analysts caution that the rally may not be sustainable in the medium term due to persistent demand concerns and the absence of fiscal policies to complement monetary easing.

Hurricane Concerns Lift Oil Prices, But Weak Demand Limits Gains

Overview Oil prices surged over 1% on Thursday as traders reacted to the disruptions caused by Hurricane Francine in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. Brent crude rose by $1.01 to reach $71.62 per barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude increased by $1 to $68.31. However, despite the supply concerns stemming from the hurricane, a dim demand outlook continues to weigh heavily on the market, capping the recent price gains. Hurricane Francine’s Impact on U.S. Oil Production Hurricane Francine's landfall in southern Louisiana has led to significant disruptions in U.S. offshore oil production.

Oil Prices Surge Amid Hurricane-Driven Supply Disruptions: Temporary or Sustained?

Overview Oil prices experienced a sharp rise on Thursday, climbing over 2% as Hurricane Francine led to significant production shutdowns in the Gulf of Mexico. However, despite this short-term disruption, concerns remain over weak global demand, particularly from China and the US, which have been weighing heavily on the market. This report delves into the impact of Hurricane Francine, ongoing concerns about demand, and what the future holds for oil prices. Impact of Hurricane Francine on Gulf Oil Production As Hurricane Francine tore through the oil-rich Gulf of Mexico, approximately 42% of the region’s oil output, or 730,000 barrels per day, was shut down.

Oil Prices Slide to Two-Year Lows Amid Weakened Demand Outlook and Supply Concerns

Overview Global oil prices took a hit on Tuesday, with both Brent crude and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures plummeting to their lowest levels since 2021 and 2023, respectively. The sharp drop followed OPEC+ revising down its demand forecast for this year and 2025, overshadowing supply disruptions caused by Tropical Storm Francine. A combination of sluggish global economic growth, disappointing data from China, and oversupply concerns has caused significant downward pressure on prices, leading energy stocks to suffer substantial losses.

With the latest new in Middle East .The Middle East conflict is worsening. In 2023, Hamas attacked Israel and took hostages back to Gaza. Israel retaliated by invading Gaza, and the situation remains unresolved. Israel is now battling on a second front, engaging Hezbollah, and in October, it invaded Lebanon. Last week, Iran launched 180 ballistic missiles at Israel, most of which were intercepted. In response, it is expected that Israel will retaliate, and there are rumors that Iran’s oil facilities may be the target. Iran, a member of OPEC, accounts for about 3% of global output. While this is not a significant share, especially considering the economic sanctions Iran faces that restrict its supplies from reaching most markets, the real issue is Iran’s geographic influence.

Brent crude and U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude closed at their lowest levels in over a year, reflecting the complex interplay of supply, demand, and economic factors. Demand Fears from the U.S. and China Weigh on Oil Prices The primary drivers behind the downward pressure on oil prices are concerns about demand, particularly from the U.S. and China.
