Crude oil futures are rebounding due to heightened geopolitical tensions stemming from U.S. tariff threats against India over Russian crude imports. This situation creates uncertainty regarding supply availability, particularly if sanctions are imposed. However, OPEC+'s decision to increase production by 547,000 barrels per day may restrict significant price increases following prior output cuts. Additional concerns arise from slower growth in key economies like China and a weak labor market in the U.S., which dampens expectations for robust oil demand. Market participants await U.S. Energy Information Administration data for clearer insights.

While oil prices are recovering, OPEC+'s plan to boost production by 547,000 barrels per day in September may limit further gains as previous output cuts are reversed.
