Johnston explains why he thinks oil will trade \\u201cflat to down\\u201d in the short-term as he notes that China\\u2019s zero-covid policy has sharply curtailed oil demand but that may change in 2023.\\xa0He argues that the release of millions of barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), the U.S.\\u2019 stockpile of emergency oil reserves, has drastically changed the supply dynamics and has likely depressed the price. Johnston also shares with Farley his views on other important drivers of oil market such as the proposed price cap, sanctions on Russian oil, and the response function from U.S. shale oil producers and the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).\\nNOTE: This interview was filmed on September 23rd, a day where the price of oil fell by as much as 7%.\\n--\\nFollow Rory Johnston on Twitter https://twitter.com/Rory_Johnston\\nFollow Jack Farley on Twitter https://twitter.com/JackFarley96\\nFollow Forward Guidance on Twitter https://twitter.com/ForwardGuidance\\nFollow Blockworks on Twitter https://twitter.com/ForwardGuidance\\nGet top market insights and the latest in crypto news.
