Oil joins the favorites

If the first week of January upset oil fans, the second, on the contrary, pleased them. Brent jumped 10% on expectations that the rapid recovery of China's economy after the lifting of COVID-19-related restrictions will strengthen global demand for oil and contribute to the recovery of prices. ING believes that thanks to China, the average cost of the North Sea variety in 2023 will be $100 per barrel, and Goldman Sachs expects a rally in futures quotes to $120. However, not everyone agrees with them.

In fact, the roller coaster ride in oil at the start of the year shows how divided the market is. Pessimists believe that economic growth outside of China leaves much to be desired and still count on a global recession. Wall Street Journal experts estimate a 61% chance of a downturn in the U.S. economy over the next 12 months. This is slightly lower than in the fall forecasts, but both are close to record high levels, except for real recessions.

Bears on Brent nod to Russia's rise in offshore oil supplies to 3.8 million bpd in the week to January 13, the highest since April. If Moscow has adapted so quickly to Western sanctions, can we talk about the lack of supply cited by Goldman Sachs?

The American investment bank notes that all investors are currently fixated on a global recession that will not actually happen. The Chinese economy will accelerate from 3% to 5.5% in 2023, the eurozone will avoid an energy crisis, and the U.S. will have a soft landing thanks to strong household balance sheets and a robust labor market. As a result, demand for oil will exceed forecasts, which, coupled with problems with supply, will allow Brent to rise to $120 per barrel.

Goldman Sachs compares the current time period with 2007–2008, when the Fed took its foot off the brake, China hit the gas all the way, and Europe began to rise rapidly. Then oil prices skyrocketed. Why don't they do it now, when the situation is very similar?

In the short term, the updated forecasts of OPEC and the IEA can provide support to the bulls for Brent. There has been a lot of pessimism in them lately, but the opening of China can add positivity.

In my opinion, the North Sea variety will grow. Markets are tired of Fear and ready for Greed to arrive. However, due to the Lunar New Year and some weakening of the U.S. economy, the oil rally will not be strong in the near future. At least for now. Nevertheless, it makes sense to use the pullbacks for buying.

Technically, due to the implementation of the 1-2-3 pattern, risks of a serious correction that can turn into a break in the long-term downward trend increase. Emphasis should be placed on the formation of long positions in the direction of $91.75 and $97.25 per barrel. We prefer holding and periodically increasing longs opened from the $83.4 level.

唐納德·川普再度以關稅言論製造混亂

美國總統唐納·川普在週二再次引起混亂,宣布計劃對他涵蓋甚廣的關稅提案引入一系列豁免。這一宣布在計劃於4月2日推出針對全球合作夥伴的報復性貿易措施之前,發出了模糊的信號。

今日黃金持續呈現正面走勢,但價格上漲的確鑿性仍然較弱。由於美國總統唐納德·川普於4月2日正式實施的關稅政策推動了市場的不確定性,這種不確定性支持黃金價格維持在較高水平,並成為推動這種貴金屬價格上漲的關鍵因素。

市場不會急於冒險進入風險

唐納·川普對全球化造成了如此沉重的打擊,使得未來的條件和展望沿著領土線進行重新劃分。雖然歐洲銀行認為標普500指數的下跌將會持續,但它們的美國同行則主張現在已不再是拋售反彈的時機。

圍繞著歐元/美元(EUR/USD)匯率形成了一個混合情況。一方面,空頭情緒佔據主導地位:上週,價格達到了1.0955的五個月高點,而在週二,該匯率更新了接近三週低點,達到1.0778。

美元/日元匯率正從週二早些時候觸及的151.00心理關口回落,但這次回調並未伴隨顯著的賣壓。儘管日本的採購經理人指數(PMI)數據令人失望,但日本央行的鷹派言論吸引了買家的注意。
