Oil Prices Increase Amid Positive Chinese Manufacturing Data, Yet Set for Year-End Decline

Credited from: REUTERS

  • Oil prices experienced an increase in early trading on December 31, driven by positive data indicating an expansion in China's manufacturing activity.
  • Brent crude futures rose by 47 cents to $74.46 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude gained 49 cents to $71.48.
  • Despite the rise, oil is on track to end the year lower for the second consecutive year, affected by demand concerns in key consuming nations.
  • The expansion in Chinese manufacturing, although at a slower pace, suggests that fresh economic stimulus is being effective.
  • Short-term support for prices may come from a decline in U.S. crude stockpiles, expected to have decreased by approximately 3 million barrels.
