Brent fell to $103.70 per barrel


July, 11 2022
watermark Economic news

Oil prices were actively declining during Monday's trading, reaching a local low at $103.70 per barrel. The pressure on the asset was exerted by news about the increase in the incidence of coronavirus in China. During the day, Brent managed to recover to $106.80 per barrel.


According to official data, 352 new cases of Covid-19 were detected in China on Sunday. As a result, the authorities of several large cities have re-introduced strict restrictive measures in order to prevent the further spread of infection. And this, according to analysts, may lead to a reduction in fuel demand in the world's largest oil importer.


In addition, the focus of the markets this week is the visit of US President Joe Biden to Saudi Arabia. Biden intends to meet with the Crown Prince of the country, as well as with the leaders of other Arab countries, including Egypt, Jordan, Iraq and the United Arab Emirates. 


The meeting will address the issue of increasing oil production in the region. However, even if the participants decide to increase production, this will have an extremely insignificant impact on the dynamics of the market, since the reserve capacities of the OPEC states are limited.
