Crude oil prices fall due to unexpected increase in US stockpile amid selling pressure

Crude Oil has faced significant challenges recently, with prices testing annual lows after failing to make a significant recovery on Monday. The market has struggled to digest the OPEC report, which some believe is overly optimistic about demand projections for 2025. Additionally, the US Dollar Index has been trading below 101.50 following Kamala Harris’ victory in the overnight presidential debate.

The decline in Crude Oil prices can be attributed to the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) release for August, which dashed hopes for a 50 basis points rate cut from the US Federal Reserve. This news, combined with a build in US stockpiles, has pushed prices down, with the commodity facing losses of nearly 10% for September. Furthermore, the latest OPEC report suggested that only a minimal reduction in production would be needed to address oversupply and meet forecasted demand, which has influenced market sentiment.

The US Dollar Index has been under pressure following Vice President Kamala Harris’ victory in the overnight debate, with uncertainty surrounding the upcoming US Consumer Price Index release adding to the cautious sentiment in the market. The focus is now on whether the US Federal Reserve will implement a 25- or 50-basis point interest rate cut at its next meeting.

In terms of technical analysis, the rise in crude stockpiles has posed challenges for Crude Oil prices, as demand projections from OPEC have not aligned with current economic realities. With a global economic slowdown impacting demand from key markets like China and the US, any potential upside moves are expected to be short-lived as long as supply and demand imbalances persist. Resistance levels to watch for include $66.91 and $70.00, with a potential return to $75.27 contingent on a significant shift in market dynamics.

WTI Crude Oil, also known as West Texas Intermediate, is a high-quality oil benchmark sourced in the United States and traded on international markets. The price of WTI Oil is influenced by factors such as global supply and demand, political instability, OPEC decisions, and the value of the US Dollar. Weekly inventory reports from organizations like the American Petroleum Institute (API) and the Energy Information Agency (EIA) play a crucial role in determining price fluctuations, along with decisions made by OPEC and OPEC+ regarding production quotas.
