在本周二北京的一场简报会上，中国人民银行行长潘功胜宣布了一系列旨在推动今年经济目标增长的措施。随后，中国经济复苏的消息与中东地区紧张局势升级共同作用下，国际油价显著上涨。美国WTI原油价格超过71美元/桶，而布伦特原油则接近75美元/桶。市场力量也支撑了算法驱动交易者正在解除的看跌头寸。
这些措施包括提高银行贷款支持和下调关键短期利率，显示出政策制定者在年内实现经济增长目标方面的坚决态度。人们普遍担心中国经济增速放缓以及来自OPEC+供应增加的情况，导致本季度油价下跌约12%。周二宣布的一系列举措可能有助于世界最大石油进口国的增长与能源需求。
“中国政府宣布自疫情以来的最大刺激计划，结合中东地区地缘政治紧张局势的突然升级和墨西哥湾沿岸可能出现另一场飓风的威胁，这在过去的三周内对空头情绪造成了沉重打击。”Rystad Energy全球市场分析总监表示。“然而，中东局势突变以及中国央行举措为油价带来了利好信号。衍生品市场也出现了看涨迹象：自最近冲突升级以来，熊市看跌期权的价格有所下降；而趋势跟随商品交易顾问的净空仓比率从一周前的约82%降至目前的55%，这反映出市场情绪的变化。”
与此同时，在中东地区，以色列对黎巴嫩南部的多个目标进行了猛烈空袭，导致数百人死亡。伊朗支持的Hezbollah组织早些时候表示准备好进行反击。
而在美国，气象预报员正密切关注一场可能在墨西哥湾加强的热带风暴，并已发布沿佛罗里达州西部海岸的飓风警报，包括坦帕湾在内的地区均在警戒范围内。要获取Bloomberg的每日新闻摘要，请点击订阅链接。
