Will crude oil fall further?Oil prices fell and then rose before closing slightly lower on Friday as the new US presidential election briefly rattled markets. The president's New Deal still needs time to land, and the current pattern of crude oil is still not contradictory. The latest data for the US and Middle East show an overall destocking, with about 300,000 b/d of crude production shut down before Hurricane Rafael makes landfall. U.S. oil and gas production will be greatly improved after the election of Donald Trump, and the new president is likely to tighten sanctions on Venezuela and Iran, which will reduce global supply. From the perspective of a trade war, demand for goods could fall around the world. The current crude oil supply and demand pattern is still volatile on oil prices.
