The details:
U.S. Sanctions: New sanctions targeted Russian oil firms (Gazprom Neft, Surgutneftgas) and their export chains, impacting 30% of Russian crude transported via tankers in 2024.
Tanker Storage Decline: Crude stored on stationary tankers dropped by 4.8% (to 50.59 million barrels) as of January 10, which is bullish for prices.
Technically, the price moved above a downward sloping trend line and up to the 61.8% of the move down from the April high at $79.07 and up to an intraday high at $79.24. That was the highest level since mid-August. The run higher has seen some profit taking into the close/settlement. However, in the new trading day, getting and staying above the 61.8% retracement at $79.07 would add to the bullish bias.
Conversely if sellers do lean against the 61.8% retracement we could see a rotation back down toward the broken trend line area near $77.50.
