1. Netherlands International: The oil market is closely watching the OPEC+ production policy change signal this week

Netherlands international strategists Warren Patterson and Ewa Manthey said the oil market will be keeping a close eye on the OPEC+ meeting later this week in case there are any signals about changes in production policy, especially after the recent weakness in oil prices. If there are any surprises, it could come in the form of a postponement of the gradual easing of production cuts, which are currently planned from October.

3. Saudi Aramco's crude oil export prices to Europe are expected to remain stable in September

According to Argus, an independent international energy and commodity price assessor, most market sources expect Saudi Aramco to keep the official price of its crude exports to Europe unchanged in September, which would mark a divergence after four consecutive months of gains. Traders said that the spread of rival Johan Sverdrup (JS) in Norway has fallen recently, and European demand is expected to cool after the summer holidays, which may prompt Saudi Aramco not to raise formula prices. But at the same time, the company is unlikely to implement price cuts in Europe, as it will at least guarantee some buying interest from refiners in the region, according to sources.

5. United Kingdom Chancellor of the Exchequer: The previous government left a fiscal deficit of 22 billion pounds

United Kingdom Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel·Reeves said on July 29 that the previous Conservative government had concealed the true state of public finances, leaving a £22 billion fiscal deficit. Speaking in the House of Commons that afternoon, Reeves said the Treasury would take steps to reduce spending by £5.5 billion this year and more than £8 billion next year to make up for the fiscal deficit caused by the previous government. The Treasury will unveil Labour's first budget since taking office on 30 October, announcing new tax and spending plans. Former Chancellor of the Exchequer Jeremy·Hunt responded on the same day that the accusations about the previous government's huge fiscal deficit were false, and Reeves' speech tried to pave the way for future tax increase plans. The new United Kingdom Labour government has recently stressed United Kingdom's poor fiscal position. The United Kingdom Prime Minister's Office said on the 27th that the assessment showed that United Kingdom was in trouble.
