Crude Oil Fundamental Analysis October 22, 2012 Forecast
Analysis and Recommendations:
Crude Oil dipped slightly today, to trade at 92.29. An increase in new home construction reported Wednesday suggested the US economy was improving and would need more gasoline, diesel and jet fuel in coming months. At the same time, US oil supplies have climbed higher than expected and are above their 5-year average for this time of year.
China’s economic news also offered a complicated outlook for oil demand. The slide in the country’s growth rate appeared to be slowing, according to data reported yesterday. That could mean Chinese oil demand will pick up. But the data also lowered expectations that China’s government will introduce new measures to stimulate the economy. That could keep a lid on demand.
Markets had little reaction to the conclusion of the EU Summit.
