Price & market indicators
Crude oil is a truly global marketplace. Key signals come from the US, as one of the biggest oil producers, with inventory or rig data key to global price movements. China plays a vital role as the world’s biggest oil consumer with changes to import quotas, refinery capacity and diplomatic relations setting the tone for import expectations. Saudi Arabia and Russia often trigger price reactions across the market especially through leadership of the OPEC + group.
