Concerns about the global economic slowdown drove down oil futures prices: 

  • Crude oil is heading for its first weekly decline since April as investors weigh the prospect of further monetary tightening by central banks.

  • Analysts, including Callum MacPherson of Investec, point to deteriorating fundamental conditions for further 'black gold' price increases.

  • USA intends to maintain sanctions by limiting the export of crude oil and petroleum products from Iran. According to analysts, the oil market must now focus on 'profitability' 

  • The reading of data on industrial production below expectations (0.2% vs. 0.4% expected) caused an increase in concerns about the economic recession.
