World oil prices continue the decline, which began at the end of last week. The current Brent quote is $97.66 per barrel. Pressure on the commodity asset is exerted by traders' concerns about the prospects for economic growth and demand for energy resources in the world in conditions of high economic uncertainty. The fact is that the world's central banks are aimed at curbing the acceleration of inflation, which can lead to a recession. The focus of the markets in the last trading week of July is the meeting of the US Federal Reserve System, which is likely to be another reminder of the economic difficulties in the country and in the world. The results of the meeting will be published on Wednesday, and most analysts expect another rate hike by 75 basis points, to 2.25-2.5%. As for demand, analysts believe that oil demand may exceed expectations even in the event of a weakening of the US economy. The fact is that consumption growth in recent years has lagged behind the average level for 40 years due to coronavirus restrictions and should return to normal levels. In general, despite the local decline, the oil market is likely to continue to grow in the coming weeks, given the beginning of the hurricane season, which may limit production in the Gulf of Mexico. And this traditionally pushes oil prices up.
