Crude Oil is trading today in the European session around the $80 level.
Crude oil prices steadied in European trading on Thursday, impacted by an API forecast of a 2.26 million barrel increase in U.S. crude reserves last week. Despite this, oil prices are up 3.3% for the week and are poised for weekly gains.
Prices have rebounded sharply from a four-month low of $72.45 in early June after OPEC+ extended their production cut deal, though the market viewed the phasing out of voluntary cuts between October 2024 and September 2025 as bearish.
Elsewhere, tensions between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon have reignited geopolitical uncertainty over possible supply disruptions in the region.
