BRENT OIL Weekly Special Report based on 1 Lot Calculation:

BRENT OIL

• GLOBAL BENCHMARK: Brent crude is a main global oil benchmark, produced in the North Sea near the U.K. It is a seaborne oil benchmark and reflects global supply-demand dynamics. In contrast, WTI (West Texas Intermediate) (American Oil), produced in the United States, is landlocked and primarily reflects U.S. market conditions.
• BRENT OIL MORE VALUABLE THAN WTI (AMERICAN) OIL. Brent often trades at a premium due to its superior global accessibility and exposure to international market risks.
• SPREAD (PRICE DIFFERENCE) BETWEEN BRENT AND WTI (AMERICAN) OIL GETS WIDER WITH THE MIDDLE EAST WAR UNDERWAY. Brent is a seaborne global benchmark, with pricing closely tied to oil flows from key export regions such as the Middle East. Any disruption, whether to production, pipelines, or critical shipping routes like the Strait of Hormuz, directly affects global supply, could support Brent prices higher.

GEOPOLITICS: MIDDLE EAST WAR

• STRAIT OF HORMUTZ IS EFFECTIVELY CLOSED:

Around 20 million barrels of oil per day unable to reach global markets.

The latest attacks on ships mark an escalation in the conflict between Iran and the U.S. forces, raising the number of ships struck in the region since fighting began ‌to at least 18.

Around 700 ships are stranded near the Strait of Hormuz, including about 400 oil tankers carrying roughly 200 million barrels of crude.

• CURRENT IMPACT: This represents ~20% of global oil demand, creating a major supply shock.
• SUPPLY LOSS ACCUMULATING: Over the last 19 days, since the war began, nearly 350 million barrels of oil exports have been disrupted.
• PRODUCTION SHUT DOWNS: 8-10 MILLION BARRELS OF OIL PER DAY. Approximately 8 to 10 million barrels per day of oil production has been stopped by several Gulf producers due to the conflict, including Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kuwait and U.A.E.

• BREAKING (MARCH 9): BRENT OIL PRICE HIT ITS HIGHEST RATE SINCE JUNE 2022 ($119.43). Brent oil price was last trading around $112, and if a full recovery to $119.43 follows, then crude oil prices may see an upside of around 7%. However, prices may decline as well.
