Oil Goes Gangbusters but May Face Short-Term Pressure
Abstract：WTI on Wednesday found some stability at $45.0 and climbed to an intraday high of $46.24, an eight-and-a-half-month high since Mar. 6.
WikiFX News (26 Nov.) - WTI on Wednesday found some stability at $45.0 and climbed to an intraday high of $46.24, an eight-and-a-half-month high since Mar. 6. Nonetheless, pressures are potentially ahead of oil in the short term.
The recent positive news on vaccines spurs markets to bet on a recovery of the global economy within 2-3 years. As a result, oil prices rose to 6.8% on Wednesday.
In addition, Biden has formally begun the transition process, dispelling earlier concerns about post-election uncertainties. He has also nominated former Fed Chair Janet Yellen as Treasury Secretary, who will work with Jerome Powell, current Fed Chair, to accelerate economic recovery.
Crude oil traders are poised for OPEC+'s delay of three to six months to the planned oil-output increase, which could be another force driving the recent surge in oil prices.
While the US and Europe have not yet reached their peak number of coronavirus cases, there remain obstacles in the economic recovery as US jobless claims increased to 778,000 in the week ended Nov. 21. Oil prices may be hampered in the short term but will continue to grow in the medium to long period.

Oil inches higher as OPEC meetings continue
A stronger than expected payroll report last Friday pushed equity markets to another all-time high. The U.S. economy added 850,000 new jobs during June when the consensus expected 700,000. Whilst the headline number looks good, there’s plenty to be worried about under the hood, as the new jobs are mostly in those sectors of the economy that have reopened. For instance, the leisure and hospitality sectors added 343,000 new jobs, education around 269,000, and the retail sector 67,000. These add up to around 80% of the total; this is great at first glance but not in the long run since these sectors do not drive the productivity or wage growth required for sustainable expansion. In particular, the U.S. economy is 70% consumer driven, which emphasizes the importance of a healthy and wealthy labor market. With the country still 7 million jobs short of pre-pandemic levels and most of the recovery happening in low-paying and low-productivity sectors, there is still a long way to go before the
