On November 29 market sources indicated that OPEC+ ministers were leaning toward keeping production policies unchanged rather than approving a fresh increase. The reported preference for status quo reflects producer caution about adding barrels into a market where demand trajectories for 2026 remain uncertain. Traders reacted by trimming speculative longs and compressing near-term risk premia, while energy desks noted that this guidance leaves the market sensitive to operational outages and geopolitical disruptions. The likely decision reduces immediate upside but keeps prices exposed to any unexpected supply interruptions or sharp demand revisions.
