Market observers referred to a report by the Bloomberg news agency. Accordingly, the Chinese leadership is discussing a partial withdrawal of measures to combat the spread of the corona virus. Apparently, the quarantine measures are to be restricted, as Bloomberg reports, citing informed circles. Most recently, the government’s tough corona course in Beijing had slowed down the country’s economy, which had repeatedly triggered concerns about demand on the oil market.

In addition, reference was made to the development of oil reserves in the USA. The US government reported on Wednesday that US crude oil inventories fell by 1.7 million barrels to 437.4 million barrels last week. Analysts, however, had expected an increase of 2.5 million barrels. Declining US oil reserves usually support oil prices.
