Can Crude Oil Futures Breakout?
Technical Momentum Weakens
Crude Oil futures are declining in 2024 after correcting to the 200-day moving average at $77.55. The technical perspective shows momentum studies recovering from oversold territories, while the 9-day moving average is trading below the 18-day. DMI- is above DMI +, indicating that the market is in a correction phase, while the Average True Range declines to $1.46 daily.
API Inventories Rise
API Inventory has increased recently, indicating a more relaxed supply picture. Recent API inventory data shows a build of 2.5 million barrels. The current EIA inventories are 457 million barrels, compared to the five-year average of 475 million barrels for this period.
Cushing stocks in the Midwest show 35 million barrels in inventory versus a five-year average of 43 million barrels.
An Expanding Economic Tailwind
The U.S. economy continues to expand in 2024, driven by the high probability of a soft landing, which fuels investor sentiment. Geopolitical tensions have eased recently; however, there is the possibility of a widening Middle Eastern conflict in the future. Traders will remain focused on inflation data, inventory productions, and the direction of economic data.
