Drilling into this move, which has helped push inflation higher and send Biden''s approval rating to the toilet, Goldman''s commodity strategist Damien Courvalin writes today that Brent oil prices have rallied past $90/bbl (hitting the bank''s 1Q22 forecast), "driven by tight fundamentals, with steep inventory draws leaving the market with concerning low inventory levels across a range of petroleum products and regions." It is in this context that OPEC+ meets this Wednesday (February 2) to set their production plans for March, with the group so far notably quiet on their decision, and even following today''s meeting of the OPEC+ Joint Technical Committee it did not discuss an output hike of more than 400K, the baseline that has been the norm for the past few months.
