An economic downturn resulting from a ‘Fed mistake’: Tyler Richey, co-editor at Sevens Report Research

WTI Extends Losses After API Reports Small (Surprise) Crude Build

“An economic downturn resulting from a ‘Fed mistake’ would lead to a bear market in the global energy markets,” Tyler Richey, co-editor at Sevens Report Research, told MarketWatch.

So “if we start to see economic data deteriorate in the coming weeks or months, demand estimates penciled in based on the optimistic hope of a soft landing will fall considerably amid an emerging recessionary reality.”

U.S. oil futures fell to new lows for the week

U.S. oil futures fell to new lows for the week: Sevens Report Co-Editor, Tyler Richey, Quoted in Morningstar

U.S. oil prices end lower for the week as demand fears outweigh Middle East war jitters

U.S. oil futures fell to new lows for the week as Chinese data showed declining imports and refinery input demand suggested that a further slowdown in the Chinese economy will weigh on total global demand, Tyler Richey, co-editor at Sevens Report Research, told MarketWatch. Data from China reportedly showed refinery runs fell 6.1% year over year in July.

That followed a negative International Energy Agency report on Thursday, which mentioned a likely surplus emerging in the physical market in the quarters ahead, and a “lackluster” weekly Energy Information Administration report Wednesday, which showed a surprise build in headline crude stockpiles, Richey noted.

Gains early on this week were geopolitically driven amid heightened tensions between Israel and Iran, said Richey.

Looking ahead, Richey said that “geopolitical tensions remain an influence on the market … with a mild fear bid remaining in place.” However, “recession fears have emerged to be a more important factor for the market as we approach the end of the summer driving season, and any rallies driven by headlines out of the Middle East are likely to be capped in the low $80s.”

A soft economic landing is “continuing to be priced in with oil at current levels but if a hard landing becomes more likely in the weeks or months ahead,” expect oil prices to fall, Richey said – with WTI moving toward the low to mid-$60s “not only possible, but likely.”

A geopolitical fear bid in the oil market

A geopolitical fear bid in the oil market: Sevens Report Co-Editor, Tyler Richey, Quoted in Morningstar

Oil prices lifted as data shows drop in U.S. crude inventories

Oil has “benefited from some of the risk-on money flows in other asset classes, most notably stocks, as well as still-elevated tensions between Israel and regional enemies Hamas and Hezbollah, keeping a geopolitical fear bid in the market,” wrote analysts at Sevens Report Research in a note.

The main reason the geopolitical tensions have not had a more pronounced impact on the global energy markets

The main reason the geopolitical tensions have not had a more impact on global energy markets: Sevens Report Co-Editor, Tyler Richey, Quoted in Morningstar

Oil prices see 4th straight weekly decline on worries over demand

The main reason the geopolitical tensions have not had a more pronounced impact on the global energy markets since tensions in the Middle East first picked up last fall is that there has not been a meaningful impact on global supply, said Tyler Richey, co-editor of Sevens Report Research.

“And demand risks related to a looming recession are much more significant than the threat to supply that the current geopolitical landscape presents which leaves the fundamental scales tipped in favor of the bears right now,” he said.

Oil futures appropriately popped in the wake of the release

 Oil futures appropriately popped in the wake of the release: Sevens Report Co-Editor, Tyler Richey, Quoted in Morningstar

Oil prices climb as U.S. data show crude supplies down a fourth straight week

Wednesday’s EIA report was “solid and oil futures appropriately popped in the wake of the release,” said Tyler Richey, co-editor at Sevens Report Research.

Still, the “trend of strong consumer demand has faltered in July,” underscored by the fact the four-week moving average of gasoline supplied remains about 30,000 barrels per day off the early July year-to-date highs, he told MarketWatch.

Going forward, the “energy bulls will want to see more evidence of strong and persistent consumer demand in order for oil to hold above key technical support at $76.50 because recession worries are on the rise and volatility is picking up, both of which are typically headwinds for the price of oil,” said Richey.

The oil market began the week with a thud

The oil market began the week with a thud: Sevens Report Co-Editor, Tyler Richey, Quoted in Morningstar

Oil prices finish lower, holding ground at lowest since mid-June

“The oil market began the week with a thud [Monday], failing to stabilize after the sharp losses in the back half of last week,” said Tyler Richey, co-editor at Sevens Report Research.

Richey said last week’s significant drop in implied gasoline demand reported by the Energy Information Administration remains a “major bearish influence on the market.”

Also, from a supply standpoint, improved prospects for a victory by former President Donald Trump in the 2024 election are “price-negative for oil,” given his plans to “support production increases to increase energy independence and lower prices,” said Richey.

Potential slowdown in demand at the pump

Potential slowdown in demand at the pump: Tyler Richey Quoted in MarketWatch

Oil gains on hopes for better demand as worries over wider Middle East conflict linger

There was evidence of that “potential slowdown in demand at the pump” in the Energy Information Administration’s report released Wednesday, said Tyler Richey, co-editor at Sevens Report Research. The implied measure of U.S. consumer demand, gasoline supplied, dropped to a one-month low of 8.969 million barrels per day for the week that ended June 21, he said. That compares with 9.386 million bpd a week earlier.

“The main takeaway is that the unforeseen strength in consumer demand that powered oil futures to multi-month highs in June began to show signs of easing back below trend last week,” Richey said in Thursday’s newsletter.

These are all contributing to the recent rebound in the oil market

These are all contributing to the recent rebound in the oil market: Tyler Richey Quoted in MarketWatch

Oil futures end higher as demand prospects improve

“Price-supportive OPEC+ rhetoric, evidence of strong domestic demand at the start of the U.S. summer driving season, rising geopolitical tensions overseas, and renewed hopes for a perfectly executed soft landing by the [Federal Reserve] are all contributing to the recent rebound in the oil market,” said Tyler Richey, co-editor at Sevens Report Research.

“Sentiment is fragile, however, and if we see any headlines that contradict any of those factors that have supported the latest rally, or even just an uptick in broad market volatility into the end of the quarter, we could see oil markets correct back towards the mid-$70-a-barrel range,” he told MarketWatch.

Investors might be getting a little more nervous around growth: Sevens Report Editor, Tom Essaye, Quoted in Barron’s

The Market Had Another Great Week—but Trouble Still Lurks

In fact, investors might be getting a little more nervous around growth, wrote Sevens Report President Tom Essaye on Friday.

“To be clear, I’m not saying a slowdown is upon us and I’m not saying that the economic expansion is ending. Growth is still solid. What I am saying is that the market calculus…may be changing a bit at the margin,” Essaye wrote.

“Good, bad and ugly” outcomes for the April consumer-price index reading.

“Good, bad and ugly” outcomes for the April consumer-price index reading: Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research, Quoted in Morningstar

Stock market could suffer ‘ugly’ day if April CPI comes in above this level

Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research, took a look Tuesday at potential “good, bad and ugly” outcomes for the April consumer-price index reading.

So what would provoke an ugly reaction? Essaye puts the threshold at 3.9%.

A core reading at or above that threshold would be likely to spark a “solid selloff,” further entrenching the idea that inflation remains sticky and rates will be higher for longer, Essaye wrote. That has the potential of undoing much of the rally seen over the last two weeks, as investors would likely scale back rate-cut expectations, penciling in just one cut in December.
