  • Due to ongoing monsoon season demand for chemical remained sluggish and weak. Now with starting of festive season across the nation requirement for paints and coatings will increase will in turn boost up the demand for this chemical.
  • There has been continuous oscillation in crude prices for this week.  On Thursday oil prices rose as renewed attention was put on U.S. oil stockpile declines at Cushing, the delivery hub for U.S. crude futures. 
  • On Thursday, closing crude values have increased.WTI on NYME closed at $47.09/bbl, prices have increased by $0.31/bbl in compared to last closing prices. While Brent on Inter Continental Exchange increased by $0.76/bbl in compared to last trading and was assessed around $51.03/bbl.
  • Market players further anticipate that crude oil prices are likely to trade sideways on the back of short covering after drop in prices. As per market predictors, the oil market has experienced a high level of disruptions to crude supply in recent years. Prices could spike above $70 a barrel if recently restored production in Nigeria and Libya falls again. But it could also sink below $40 if disruptions elsewhere in the world get resolved, putting more crude oil into the market.
  • Moreover, OPEC reported its production continued to rise despite its supply quota deal with Russia. Analysts remain unconvinced that OPEC can re-balance the global oil markets without full participation from all cartel members.
