Fundamental Development: Oil prices inched lower after seesawing through early trading on Tuesday, as worries that fuel demand would hit by a possible recession and fresh COVID-19 curbs in China outweighed tight global supplies. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude fell 22 cents, or 0.2% to $120.71, while Brent crude futures eased 25 cents, or 0.2%, to $122.02 a barrel. In China, a COVID outbreak at a bar in Beijing has raised fears of a new phase of lock downs just as restrictions were being eased and fuel demand was expected to firm. Crude has rallied about 60% this year as an economic rebound coincided with upended trade flows after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. While China is facing a bumpy return from strict COVID-19 lock downs, rising consumption from the top importer will strain the market further and drive prices higher.
