On and around November 22 the oil market remained particularly sensitive to comments and leaks about OPEC+ supply intentions. Market participants balanced two narratives: improving demand signals tied to easing trade tensions and the prospect that several producers might add modest incremental barrels. That combination produced choppy trade and amplified short-term volatility in futures and options, with traders quick to reprice curves in response to each new statement. For oil-linked equities and exporter currencies, the oscillation between demand optimism and supply additions complicated hedging and budgeting decisions, sustaining elevated attention to official OPEC+ communications.
