据7月20日彭博社报道称,由于美国原油库存下降,市场对需求的持续担忧被消除,石油价格趋于稳定。
西得克萨斯中质原油价格在周三下跌0.5%后,交易价格超过每桶75美元。官方数据显示,美国全国库存下降,俄克拉何马州库欣的库存下降幅度为2021年10月以来最大。然而,对主要精炼产品(汽油、蒸馏物和喷气燃料)的需求连续第二周下降,缓和了这一局面。
继上周暴跌之后,美元最近的复苏加剧了石油的看空情绪,以美元计价的大宗商品对大多数买家来说更加昂贵。本周,原油价格窄幅波动,今年以来仍在小幅下跌,自6月下旬以来,由于市场最终可能有收紧的迹象,原油价格大幅上涨。
盛宝资本市场私人有限公司驻新加坡市场策略师Charu Chanana表示,由于美元走强,本周早些时候的涨幅被逆转,而库存报告的影响有限。

Oil steadies as drop in US stockpiles offsets demand concerns
Oil steadied as persistent demand concerns and dollar strength were offset by declines in crude stockpiles in the US.
West Texas Intermediate traded above $75 a barrel, after declining by 0.5 per cent on Wednesday. Nationwide inventories fell with stockpiles at the Cushing, Oklahoma, storage hub shrinking by the most since October 2021, according to official data. However, that was tempered by a second weekly drop in demand for the main refined products: gasoline, distillates and jet fuel.
The recent revival in the US dollar, following a slump last week, added to the bearishness for oil, with commodities priced in the currency more expensive for most buyers. Crude has traded in a narrow range this week, and is still marginally down this year, after making a sharp break higher since late June on signs the market may finally be tightening.
Gains earlier this week were reversed because of dollar strength, while the inventory report had a limited impact, said Charu Chanana, a market strategist for Saxo Capital Markets Pte. in Singapore.
