Oil prices recorded a slight increase after initially declining. This change was influenced by U.S. intervention in Venezuela and OPEC+'s decision to maintain production levels until April. At 1:00 PM, the price of Brent crude oil rose by 0.43%, exceeding $61 per barrel, while West Texas Intermediate (WTI) increased by 0.49%, reaching $57.6 per barrel.
Analyst Javier Molina from eToro mentioned that U.S. intervention could generate volatility in the market, but the long-term impact is considered limited. U.S. President Donald Trump has called for full access to Venezuela's natural resources, while Raphael Thuin, the Director of Capital Market Strategies at Tikehau Capital, emphasized that although Venezuela's global economic impact is limited, positive catalysts for the oil market could emerge.
OPEC+ confirmed that it will maintain a stable supply without reacting to events in Venezuela. The decision was made during a teleconference with ministers from various oil-producing countries. Despite intentions to recover production, analysts believe that Venezuela's capacity to increase production is limited due to deteriorated infrastructure and previous sanctions.
