while Brent remains bullish, treading above the $90 mark, the market is awash with caution. Key indicators, including reports from stalwarts like the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), will likely shape the narrative in the coming days. Notably, the IEA recently trimmed its 2024 oil demand growth forecast, pointing to subdued macroeconomic conditions. In contrast, OPEC’s August dispatch maintained its 2.25 million bpd growth forecast for the same year.
