WTI Extends Losses After Crude Inventory Build; US Production Dropped
Oil prices fell to fresh four-year lows early on Wednesday on expectations economies will slump as China, Canada and the European Union push back against tariffs imposed by Trump, but are off the lows ahead of the official inventory and supply data.
“Crude prices slumped to a four-year low with focus squarely on the escalating global trade war and its potential negative impact on growth and demand for energy,” Saxo Bank noted.
A mixed bag from API overnight (small crude draw) is being overwhelmed by the global geopolitical picture being adjusted by Trump.

The shape of the oil futures curve is rapidly shifting into contango – a fresh sign that traders are hastily dialing back their expectations for global demand this year.
“The contango implies deteriorating demand perspectives,” said Tamas Varga an analyst at brokerage PVM Oil Associates Ltd.
“Evidence of worsening Chinese oil demand growth will put immense pressure on the front-end.”
Finally, there is a potential silver for Main Street as crude prices have collapsed, so gasoline prices at the pump are set to follow…
…and along with gasoline prices, disinflation.
