Crude Oil Price Update: Market Dynamics Amid Chinese Inflation Data and Geopolitical Tensions

China's inflation landscape has recently shown signs of weakness, with the annual inflation rate reaching 0.40% in September 2024, the slowest in three months.

 

Recent developments in the Middle East have heightened concerns over potential supply disruptions. U.S. President Joe Biden's comments regarding Israel's possible actions against Iran's oil facilities pushed WTI oil prices higher above $78.
