Oil prices worldwide 

Oil prices on Friday saw a dip on the back of demand concerns over tighter supply from global producers and a possible nuclear deal between the United States and Iran. Any possible deal in this regard to restore the 2015 nuclear deal, which the Trump administration had voided, would likely include the US waiving sanctions on purchase of Iranian oil.  

West Texas Intermediate fell as much as 4.8 per cent before paring losses and settling near $71 a barrel. Brent crude futures dropped 36 cents, or 0.5 per cent, to $75.60 a barrel. 

“Crude oil prices witnessed very high price volatility and plunged nearly $3 per barrel following a rumor that Iran and the US are reaching a nuclear deal. WTI prices slipped below $70 per barrel. Crude oil prices also fell after a record increase in the US jobless claims increased fears of slowdown and demand concerns. However, weakness in the dollar index and supply concerns from the OPEC+ nations supported crude oil prices at lower levels. Crude oil has support at $69.80–69.00 and resistance at $71.70–72.40 in today’s session. In INR terms, crude oil has support at Rs 5,810-5,740, while resistance is at Rs 5,980–6,050,” said Rahul Kalantri, VP Commodities, Mehta Equities Ltd.
