Fundamental Analysis of WTI OIL

WTI OIL Key Takeaways

• China-US tariff agreement: Yesterday, China and the United States reached a tariff agreement, and the unexpected results brought optimistic results. Investors are optimistic that crude oil demand will rise in the future.

• Crude oil supply and demand: It is worth noting that the current oil price is more of a short-term optimistic sentiment.
