75: Decline in Oil Tankers to China Signals Weaker Demand
The number of oil tankers heading to China has dropped to its lowest in nearly two years, indicating weaker demand in the world's second-largest economy. Bloomberg reports only 86 supertankers en route over the next three months, the lowest since August 2022.
Current Scenario: After holding $70 on the weekly chart, oil prices are attempting to reach new highs around $90. This movement suggests bullish momentum as the market reacts to shifting demand dynamics.
Bearish Scenario: If oil prices fail to maintain momentum and drop below the recent low, we could see a trend reversal. Key support to watch is around $60, where buyers might step in again.
Bullish Scenario: If oil prices break above $90, we could target $100 as the next major resistance level. Sustained bullish momentum would be necessary for this upward move, potentially driven by improving economic indicators or geopolitical factors.
