Price action Market drivers More economic data released on Monday showed the U.S. economy is still “running hot creating scope for more interest rate hikes, and downgrading short- to medium-term growth prospects; a scenario that would entail a drop in oil demand,” said Ricardo Evangelista, a senior analyst at ActivTrades.
In other news, oil traders are waiting to see how a cap on prices of Russian oil imposed by the Group of Seven and the European Union will impact the market after expectations that it could cause prices to spike didn’t pan out. “It is interesting that these losses are occurring at the same time as the G7 price cap on Russian oil kicks in. The measure, which some feared would destabilize the market, hasn’t yet produced such effect,” Evangelista said.
