Hey Trader,
Summer Demand Finally Kicks In, Lifting Oil Prices
Summer is here, and with it comes a long-awaited surge in the oil markets.
ICE Brent has crept up to $85 per barrel, surpassing pre-OPEC+ meeting levels and eliminating the contango in the North Sea paper market.
This shift signals a significant opportunity for energy traders looking to capitalize on the evolving market dynamics.
The unwinding of bearish bets on crude oil and robust physical trading have buoyed European sentiment.
Brent contracts for difference (CFDs) have swung into backwardation, with the W1-W6 spread now at nearly $2 per barrel.
This backwardation indicates a tightening supply and growing demand, presenting a ripe opportunity for traders to make profitable moves.
A major bullish factor driving this surge is the hurricane season across the Americas.
Tropical Storm Alberto has already swept across Mexico, prompting US refiners to stock up on crude, particularly barrels produced in the Gulf of Mexico.
The hurricane season adds a layer of volatility to the market, which savvy traders can leverage to their advantage.
Additionally, the risks associated with hurricanes have weakened the arbitrage of US crude into Europe, potentially lifting European prices even higher.
With less US crude flowing into Europe, the demand for local supply increases, pushing prices up and creating lucrative trading opportunities.
