  • Crude oil futures were marginally lower during mid-morning trade in Asia Friday after an OPEC meeting held yesterday. It resulted into no supply cuts in crude production and bearish market reports on oil fundamentals.
  • Ongoing trade tensions between the US and China, coupled with geopolitical risks in the http://www.globalchemicalprice.com/images/report/ReportAceticAcidDt.2.13.09.2019.jpgiddle East and OPEC production cuts, kept prices moving within a tight range Friday morning.
  • According to reports India has been one of the major beneficiaries as its imports bill has reduced heavily with declining crude prices.
  • Crude oil prices fell more than $10 per barrel in a year and being the largest component in India’s overall imports, the fall in prices and demand can substantially bring down the country’s import bill. Decline in global economic indicators, US-China trade war and Brexit uncertainty are believed to have contributed to oil price declines and volatility. In 2014, oil prices dramatically fell down to $50 per barrel from over $100 per barrel.
