The most important factors controlling oil prices

There were several events that strongly pressured oil prices, most notably:
– The slight decrease in the oil production lines in “OPEC +”,
in addition to the threat of Russian President “Putin” to cut
off gas supplies to Europe permanently if Europe sets a price ceiling,
which is a matter that preoccupies Europe a lot and
that the loss of these supplies will exacerbate the crisis and
also Oil costs will rise in the coming months.

– With the increase in interest rates by about 75 basis points
by the European Center, it also affected prices.

– In addition to the closures, tightening and application of “zero covid” in China,
including the recent decision regarding the population of Chengdu,
which has a population of 21 million people, which is the complete closure currently.
