OPEC drip feeds more oil

Published: July 18, 2021, 8:32 p.m.

Monday 19th July 2021OPEC reached a deal of sorts over the weekend which will see supplies increase incrementally over the next few months. NAB\u2019s Rodrigo Catril said markets had been expecting a deal of this magnitude, so it has done little (so far) to oil prices. Meanwhile, COVID caution continues to rein over the markets, with a stronger US dollar and a weaker Aussie. US retail numbers were strong on Friday, but we discuss Google data which suggests store visits are plateauing below pre-COVID levels in most parts of the world. New Zealand\u2019s strong inflation numbers at the end of last week cemented the likelihood of action by the RBNZ, and this week will be the ECB\u2019s first change to issue guidance reflecting its new strategy.
