Gasoline prices today June 10: Rising to multi-week high thanks to expectations for US-China negotiations

World crude oil prices continued to climb, reaching their highest level in weeks thanks to a weakening USD and positive expectations from US-China trade negotiations.

World oil price developments

At the close of trading on June 9, Brent crude oil prices rose 0.9% to $67.04/barrel, while US WTI crude oil prices rose 1.1% to $65.29/barrel. During the session, both types of oil hit their peaks since late April and early April, respectively.

On the morning of June 10, oil prices continued to increase slightly: Brent oil increased 0.3% to 67.25 USD/barrel, while WTI oil increased 0.15% to 65.39 USD/barrel (updated at 11:30 Vietnam time).

Investors expect a deal between the world's two largest economies to improve the global outlook and stimulate energy demand.

The US dollar fell 0.3%, making oil more attractive to buyers using other currencies, while a phone call between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping ahead of a meeting between the two delegations in London raised hopes of a breakthrough in trade relations.

However, analysts say the current uptrend is technical and could easily reverse if there are no new, more positive signals.

Demand and supply continue to struggle

While hopes for trade talks have helped bolster market confidence, fundamental data from China has been a drag. The country’s May exports fell sharply, factory prices fell to a two-year low, and crude imports fell as refineries entered maintenance.

On the supply side, OPEC output in May increased slightly to 26.75 million barrels/day, with the increase mainly from Saudi Arabia and the UAE, but still lower than the overall plan due to additional cuts from Iraq.

Overall, expectations for progress in US-China negotiations are the main driving force helping oil prices maintain an upward trend, despite weak macroeconomic signals from China and the possibility of OPEC+ supply increasing again in the near future.
