The situation in Iran could still provide more support to crude oil prices, especially if the United States and Israel decided to take military action, although for now that is an improbable scenario, but further unrest in the middle east region could provide more bullish momentum to crude oil prices.
Traders will continue to monitor the developments from Europe regarding the debt crisis, where reports suggest that Germany and France reached an agreement on a plan to ease the European debt crisis. Nonetheless, tensions remain elevated in financial markets, as investors are concerned that EU leaders will fail to reach an agreement again after suffering similar disappointments over the past few months.
Our overall outlook for crude oil prices has changed somewhat to the upside, where rising tensions between Iran and the west could provide crude oil prices with bullish momentum, while optimism over the outlook of the European debt crisis could also support crude oil prices. Nonetheless, the prospects of slowing global growth could put negative pressure on crude oil prices, but the bias has changed to the upside.
