Fuel price outlook
Over the next couple of weeks, Brent Crude futures are likely to remain highly sensitive to geopolitical developments, particularly in the Middle East. Recent reports of potential Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities have already caused prices to jump, highlighting the significant impact of escalating regional tensions. Any further escalation or de-escalation in this area will be a primary driver of price movement.
Beyond geopolitics, global economic sentiment and monetary policy will also play a crucial role. Concerns about global growth and potential shifts in interest rates could influence demand expectations. Supply-side factors, such as OPEC+ production decisions and U.S. crude oil inventory levels, will also be closely watched. While some analysts anticipate a generally downward trend for Brent later in 2025 due to rising inventories and potential unwinding of OPEC+ cuts, short-term movements are more volatile and subject to immediate news flow.
