Greggio, prezzi proseguono discesa su balzo scorte Usa

LONDRA (Reuters) - I prezzi del petrolio si muovono in deciso ribasso, proseguendo il calo della sessione precedente sulla scia dell'aumento delle scorte di greggio statunitense, in un contesto di offerta abbondante e deboli dati relativi alle raffinerie.

I futures sul Brent scambiano a 69,79 dollari il barile intorno alle ore 12,30 italiane, in ribasso di 1,2 dollari rispetto all'ultima chiusura.

I futures sul greggio Usa arretrano di 1,06 dollari a quota 60,36, dopo aver perso il 2,5% il giorno prima.

Il Brent è indirizzato verso il maggior ribasso su base settimanale in 12 settimane e il greggio Usa in 15 settimane.

Le scorte di greggio statunitense sono aumentate la scorsa settimana, arrivando ai livelli più alti da luglio del 2017, secondo i dati Eia. Un inatteso accumulo delle riserve è stato evidenziato anche dai numeri Api di martedì.

Oltre alla debole domanda di greggio delle raffineria, l'aumento delle scorte giunge sulla scia delle previste vendite di riserve petrolifere strategiche statunitensi sul mercato commerciale.La produzione di greggio statunitense è aumentata di 100.000 barili al giorno (bpd) a 12,2 milioni di barili al giorno, sfiorando il record di 12,3 milioni di barili al giorno raggiunto il mese precedente.

Sul mercato pesa anche la continua guerra dei dazi tra Stati Uniti e Cina, che penalizza la crescita economica e di conseguenza le previsioni per la domanda petrolifera.

A contrastare questi fattori ribassisti sui prezzi hanno contribuito le crescenti tensioni politiche tra Iran e Stati Uniti, insieme ai tagli all'offerta da parte dell'Opec.

Secondo Bnp Paribas gli alti livelli delle scorte suggeriscono che l'Opec probabilmente manterrà in vigore i tagli volontari all'offerta.

Fwd: The Looming Bank Collapse The U.S. financial system could be on the cusp of calamity. This time, we might not be able to save it.

After months  of living with the coronavirus pandemic, American citizens are well aware of the toll it has taken on the economy: broken supply chains, record unemployment, failing small businesses. All of these factors are serious and could mire the United States in a deep, prolonged recession. But there's another threat to the economy, too. It lurks on the balance sheets of the big banks, and it could be cataclysmic. Imagine if, in addition to all the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic, you woke up one morning to find that the financial sector had collapsed. You may think that such a crisis is unlikely, with memories of the 2008 crash still so fresh. But banks learned few lessons from that calamity, and new laws intended to keep them from taking on too much risk have failed to do so. As a result, we could be on the precipice of another crash, one different from 2008 less in kind than in degree. This one could be worse. John Lawrence: Inside the 2008 financial crash The financial

3 Reasons Why Gold Will Outperform Equities And Bonds

3 Reasons Why Gold Will Outperform Equities And Bonds https://www.forbes.com/ 3 Reasons Why Gold Will Outperform Equities And Bonds For centuries, gold has played a major role in human history and has become interwoven into the financial fabric of society. Beyond its investment following, gold has become synonymous with wealth. Historically, gold's early use cases revolved around money – a form of "medium of exchange". After the second world war however, several countries and their respective currencies, started to shift away from the gold standard and migrated towards a fiat currency system. Today, gold remains largely a "Store of Value", and due to its unique properties and large number of use cases, it has managed to distance itself from other asset classes in terms of correlation, demand / supply drivers, and investment purpose. Gold's idiosyncrasies function as a double-edged sword, as it is challenging to predict

What Will Stocks Do When “Consensual Hallucination” Ends?

The phenomenon works – until it doesn't. What's astonishing is how long it works. There is a phenomenon in stock markets, in bond markets, in housing markets, in cryptocurrency markets, and in other markets where people attempt to get rich. It's when everyone is pulling in the same direction, energetically hyping everything, willfully swallowing any propaganda or outright falsehood, and not just nibbling on it, but swallowing it hook, line, and sinker, and strenuously avoiding exposure to any fundamental reality. For only one reason: to make more money. People do it because it works. Trading algos are written to replicate it, because it works. It works on the simple principle: If everyone believes stocks will go up, no matter what the current price or the current situation, or current fundamental data, then stocks will go up. They will go up because there is a lot of buying pressure because everyone believes that everyone believes that prices will go up, and so they bid up
