West Texas Intermediate (WTI) US Crude Oil prices struggle to capitalize on the overnight modest bounce from the $69.25 area, or a two-week low and attract some sellers during the Asian session on Wednesday. The commodity currently trades around the $70.25 region, down 0.30% for the day, and seems vulnerable to decline further.
Despite worries about an escalation of conflict in the Middle East, reports that Israel would not strike Iranian nuclear and oil sites eased fears of a supply disruption. This comes on top of a fall in China’s oil imports for the fifth straight month raised concerns about weak demand in the world’s top importer.
