UBS is expecting Brent crude oil to recover into $85 - 90 rangeSeeking Alpha (gated) with the info from a note from UBS on oil, expects Brent to recover into an $85-90/ bbl range over the coming months.
The note is a good summary of the mix of factors at play.
On demand and the recent slide in price:
- recession fears in the US, ongoing ceasefire hopes in Gaza have
lowered crude's risk premium
weak Chinese crude imports and refinery activity in July sparked
fears of poor Chinese oil demand
On supply:
US crude production growth is slowing down- declining US drilling activity doesn't suggest an acceleration in supply growth in
the near term - OPEC+
is likely to stick to its cautious approach when adding back supply
