WTI recovered insignificantly, bearish factors prevailed
West Texas Intermediate 
USOIL opened down to 68.94 USD/barrel as of the time this article was completed.
The Paris-based International Energy Agency (IEA) warned last Thursday that global crude oil demand is cooling while output outside the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies ( OPEC+) continues to increase.
According to IEA data, the organization predicts non-OPEC+ crude oil production will increase by 1.5 million barrels per day from 2024 to 2025.
The fact that supply is continuously expanding while market demand is not enough to compensate is the most noticeable pressure on the oil market at the present time.
West Texas Intermediate crude fell about 15% this quarter on concerns about falling demand. The International Energy Agency said that global consumption growth in the first half of the year reached its lowest level since the epidemic. In that context, OPEC+, an organization of oil producing countries, postponed plans to relax supply restrictions, and Libya's oil output continued to decline.

Combined with the fact that the Federal Reserve is expected to start cutting interest rates at its meeting next week after the labor market showed signs of slowing and traders are more optimistic that policymakers policy will cut interest rates by 50 basis points.

The IEA emphasized that the oil market is currently focused on further developments from Israel, especially the possibility of attacks on Iran's key energy infrastructure. Iran's Kharg Island export port, with a capacity to transport 1.6 million barrels of crude oil per day, mainly to China, is the focus of concern. In addition, the risk of spreading conflict to the strategic Strait of Hormuz also receives special attention.Note
