油价本周开始再次走低,西得克萨斯中质原油每桶跌破70美元,布伦特原油每桶跌破74美元

对美国债务违约的担忧是拉低油价的主要经济因素,美国国会陷入了谈判僵局

市场重新开放但复苏不均衡只会加剧看跌情绪,交易商们在关注本月国际能源署(IEA)报告中的需求修正

据油价网2023年5月15日报道,根据当天早些时候发布的亚洲贸易数据,由于交易商们对全球经济状况的担忧超过了对供应紧张的预期,油价本周开始再次下跌。

由于对美国可能出现债务违约的担忧持续升温,而美国国会仍在就债务上限进行谈判,在撰写本文时,布伦特原油交易价格报收于每桶74美元以下,而西得克萨斯中质原油交易价格跌至每桶70美元以下。

IG集团市场分析师Tony Sycamore对路透社记者表示:“由于全球经济复苏不均衡,且担心美国经济在债务上限的最后期限即将到来之际面临增长放缓,加上美元走强,市场对原油的情绪最多将保持温和。”

荷兰国际集团大宗商品策略主管沃伦·帕特森向彭博新闻社表示:“由于需求前景不确定,以及对美国债务上限的担忧,原油市场的情绪仍然消极。”“市场可能会在美国能源信息署(IEA)的月度市场报告中关注需求修正的可能性。”

据彭博新闻社报道,自今年年初以来,原油价格已经下跌了大约13%,交易商们已经积累了自2021年7月以来最大的大宗商品空头头寸。

Oil Prices Sink As Economic Concerns Continue To Dominate Markets

·     Oil prices started the week lower once again, with West Texas Intermediate trading below $70 and Brent falling below $74.

·     Fears of a U.S. debt default are the major economic factor pulling oil prices lower, with Congress locked in negotiations.

·     Global uneven reopening is only adding to bearish sentiment, with traders looking out for demand revisions in this month's IEA report.

Crude oil started trade this week with a decline, based on Asian trade data from earlier in the day, as traders’ worry about the state of the global economy trumped any expectations of tight supply.

At the time of writing Brent was trading at below $74 per barrel and West Texas Intermediate had slipped below $70 per barrel as fears of a possible U.S. debt default continue to run high while Congress remains locked in negotiations over the debt ceiling.

Legislators need to agree on a higher debt ceiling as soon as possible because the state’s coffers will run out by June 1st, according to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. This is not the first time Congress is taking its time agreeing to higher debt limits and it is not the first time various officials are sounding the default alarm.

The current debt ceiling of the United States is $31.4 trillion. Democrats and the White House want this raised without any conditions but Republicans insist on some spending cuts in order to agree to the raise.

"With the uneven re-opening in world and concerns that the U.S is facing a growth slowdown at a time when the X-date for the debt ceiling is rapidly approaching, topped off by a rally in the U.S dollar, market sentiment towards crude oil will remain tepid at best," IG analyst Tony Sycamore told Reuters.

“Sentiment in the oil market remains negative with an uncertain demand outlook and concerns over the US debt ceiling,” Warren Patterson, head of commodities strategy for ING Groep, told Bloomberg. “The market will likely be looking out for any potential demand revisions in the IEA’s monthly market report.”

Since the start of the year, oil has lost some 13%, according to Bloomberg, and traders have accumulated the largest short position on the commodity since July 2021.
