The oil market ended the week with growth, recovering some of the losses on Monday and Tuesday. Brent crude futures rose 0.77% to $75.15 per barrel, while U.S. WTI rose 0.85% to $70.79, despite continued uncertainty in the Middle East. Traders are closely monitoring the development of the situation in the Gaza Strip, where ceasefire negotiations are expected to resume. Tensions in the Middle East caused by Iran's missile attacks and the expected Israeli reaction are putting pressure on oil prices. Some analysts predict that possible strikes on Iran's oil infrastructure could lead to higher prices. At the same time, expectations regarding China's stimulus policy have a restraining effect on the market. Despite hopes for an increase in oil demand, experts do not expect that Chinese measures will have a significant impact on prices. Goldman Sachs confirmed its forecast for oil prices at $70-85 per barrel for Brent in 2025, citing that the impact of Chinese incentives will be modest compared to other factors such as the supply of oil from the Middle East.
