Even under milder energy scenarios, he stresses that supply chain disruptions, higher production costs and firm-level price adjustments are already embedded, leaving the ECB unconvinced that inflation will quickly return to target. Persistent energy shock sustains risks “All members viewed the risks surrounding the inflation outlook as being to the upside relative to the staff baseline projections, with the evolution of the conflict in the Middle East being the key source of risk.” “With the energy shock proving more persistent than had been envisaged at the time of the March and April meetings, and indirect effects starting to become increasingly visible and broad-based, the inflation outlook had deteriorated further.” “Looking ahead, it wa

The post WTI Price Forecast: Rejection at the 200-day SMA keeps bears in control appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude Oil edges lower on Thursday, erasing all of the previous day’s gains as traders reassess the supply risks stemming from renewed US-Iran tensions. At the time of writing, WTI is trading around $71.75, down 3.77% on the day.

WTI also remains well below the 100-day SMA around $86.91, suggesting sellers retain the upper hand despite
