The market traded mostly sideways as the news of possible interest rate cuts in September helped support the market. It posted a high of $78.73 before it sold off and breached its previous low of $77.55. The market retraced more than 62% of its move from a low of $72.23 to a high of $83.58 as it sold off to a low of $76.40 by midday amid efforts to reach a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas. President Biden is expected to meet Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House on Thursday and are expected to discuss ways to reach a ceasefire. The market later retraced some of its losses and traded in a sideways trading range. The September contract, in its first day as the spot contract, settled down $1.44 at $76.96, while the September Brent contract settled down $1.39 at $81.01. The product markets ended the session lower, with the heating oil market settling down 2.49 cents at $2.4099 and the RB market settling down 5.65 cents at $2.4141.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Technical Analysis<\/strong>:&nbsp; The crude market on Wednesday will be driven by the weekly petroleum stocks reports. The inventory reports are expected to show draws across the board, with a draw of over 2.7 million barrels expected in crude stocks. However, any retracement of its recent losses will be limited as the market awaits the outcome of talks on the Gaza ceasefire. Also, daily stochastics are still trending lower. The oil market is seen finding support at its low of $76.40, $76.40 followed by $75.25, $74.57-$74.52 and $73.44. Meanwhile, resistance is seen at its high of $78.73, $79.13, $79.24 followed by $80.00, $80.98, $81.34 and $82.27. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fundamental News<\/strong>:&nbsp; Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told families of hostages held in Gaza that a deal that would secure their release could be near, as fighting continued in the battered Palestinian enclave. Israeli forces pressed on with a raid into Gaza&#8217;s southern area of Khan Younis after ordering civilians to evacuate some districts they said had been used for renewed attacks by Palestinian militants. Prime Minister Netanyahu is currently in Washington and is expected to meet U.S. President Joe Biden later this week after making an address to Congress. An Israeli negotiation team was due on Thursday to resume talks that would include hostages being released in return for Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli jails. In a week-long truce in November, 105 hostages were freed in return for 240 Palestinian prisoners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Russia\u2019s Deputy Prime Minister, Alexander Novak, said the country\u2019s oil production is close to the quotas agreed within the OPEC+ group of leading oil producers. He did not detail production data. Last month, Russia conceded that its oil production in May had exceeded quotas set by the OPEC+ group of major oil producing countries, while pledging to meet its obligations. Separately, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said that Russia will reinstate a ban on gasoline exports from August 1<sup>st<\/sup> and that it is considering extending the restriction into the autumn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Goldman Sachs said Canada&#8217;s oil production has remained largely stable, but the risk that wildfires pose to the industry is increasing. It said the worst of the wildfire season is likely yet to come, and a third of Alberta wildfires are burning out of control, threatening 400,000 bpd of oilsands production. Suncor has been curtailing production in its over 200,000 bpd Firebag field for over two weeks and other producers started to evacuate non-essential workers from the most affected fields, while keeping production stable so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exxon Mobil said Monday its 251,800 b\/d Joliet refinery was still awaiting power restoration at the refinery to assess damages after severe storms and a nearby tornado hit the region back on July 15<sup>th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Colonial Pipeline Co is allocating space for Cycle 43 shipments on Line 20, which carries distillates from Atlanta, Georgia to Nashville, Tennessee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Early<\/strong><strong> Market Call &#8211; as of 8:15 AM EDT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WTI &#8211; August $77.80, up 84 cents<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>RBOB &#8211; August $2.4453, up 3.12 cents <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>HO &#8211; August $2.4418, up 3.19 cents<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recap:&nbsp; The oil market continued to trend lower as expectations of a ceasefire in Gaza seemed to outweigh the news of a potential September interest rate cut in the U.S. [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"sfsi_plus_gutenberg_text_before_share":"","sfsi_plus_gutenberg_show_text_before_share":"","sfsi_plus_gutenberg_icon_type":"","sfsi_plus_gutenberg_icon_alignemt":"","sfsi_plus_gutenburg_max_per_row":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[21,191,23,20,1,190],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-44849","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-crude","category-delivered-fuel","category-gasoline","category-heating-oil","category-market-insights","category-wholesale-fuel"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.4 (Yoast SEO v27.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Understanding the Oil Market: Ceasefire Impacts and Interest Rate Expectations - Sprague Energy<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Stay updated on the latest developments in the oil market.
