A note for the diary, June 25 and 26

I posted on Goldman Sachs' outlook a little earlier

The bank sees a difficulty path for further output cuts into H2.

A couple of other, points, these made by UBS (in brief):

possibility that production cuts could be underwhelming

  • Saudi's have the option to replace Iranian supply in the face of sanctions, although to date they have expressed reluctance to respond given their experience last year
  • Russian authorities have stated concern about continuing curbs on production
