Crude oil is trading at around 76.36.
The global oil market is facing uncertainty as the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies (OPEC+) postponed their production-cut meeting to November 30. The decision came early Thursday, pushing West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude prices down near $76.20.
This delay has heightened concerns about future crude supplies and market stability, especially in light of the recent Israel-Hamas tensions and a slowdown in demand growth from China. Saudi Arabia has indicated plans to continue with its ongoing production cuts of one million barrels per day.
