中国石化新闻网讯 据普氏能源资讯8月1日新加坡报道,周四亚洲时段早盘中段原油期货走低,尽管上周有报道称美国原油库存有所减少,但由于市场关注美国降息,将美元汇率推升至多年高点。 新加坡时间上午10点30分(格林尼治时间0230),洲际交易所(ICE)最新交割的布伦特10月原油期货从周三的结算价下跌75美分/桶(1.15%),至64.30美元/桶,而纽约商交所9月轻质低硫原油期货合约下跌76美分/桶(1.3%),至57.82美元/桶。 美联储周三将利率目标下调25个基点至2.0% -2.25%。此次降息标志着美联储政策的逆转,利率持平或加息的状态已超过十年之久。 美元与油价之间存在着一种相反的关系。美元走强不利于包括石油在内的大宗商品。 IG市场策略师潘景义表示:“在美联储令人失望的背景下,亚洲市场看来将连续第二天处于低迷状态。” 大华银行分析师在一份报告中表示:“投资者对美联储主席杰罗姆•鲍威尔的言论感到担忧。鲍威尔表示,昨晚的降息并不标志着一系列降息行动的开始。” 分析师表示,尽管上周美国原油库存报告出现下滑,但上述消息仍导致原油价格转跌。 美国能源情报署(EIA)周三公布的数据显示,截至7月26日的一周,美国商业原油库存连续第七周下降850万桶至4.365亿桶。 EIA数据显示,成品油价格亦下滑,上周汽油库存总量减少180万桶至2.307亿桶,馏分油库存减少近90万桶至1.359亿桶。 。 截至格林尼治时间0230,美元指数上涨0.26%至98.59。 裘寅 编译自 普氏能源资讯 原文如下: Crude oil futures slump after Fed cuts Crude oil futures were lower during mid-morning trade in Asia Thursday despite a draw reported in US crude inventory last week, as markets focused on the US interest rate cut which pushed the US dollar to multi-year highs. At 10:30 am in Singapore (0230 GMT), the new front-month ICE Brent October futures fell 75 cents/b (1.15%) from Wednesday's settle to $64.30/b, while the NYMEX September light sweet crude futures contract dropped 76 cents/b (1.3%) to $57.82/b. The US Federal Reserve on Wednesday lowered its interest rate target by 25 basis points to 2.00%-2.25%. The cut marked a reversal of Fed policy in which rates have either been flat or on the rise for more than a decade. There is an inverse relationship between the US dollar and oil prices. A strong dollar is bearish for commodities in general, including oil. "Asia markets look to remain in a state of gloom for the second day amid the back of the Fed disappointment," said Pan Jingyi, IG market strategist. "Investors are concerned over US Fed Chairman Jerome Powell comment that last night's rate cut does not the mark the beginning of a long series of rate cuts," said analysts from UOB Bank in a note. Crude prices turned bearish to the above news despite a draw reported in last week's US crude inventories, said analysts. US commercial crude stocks for the week ended July 26 fell for the seventh straight week by 8.5 million barrels to 436.5 million barrels, according to data released by the US Energy Information Administration on Wednesday. Refined products also fell with total gasoline inventories down 1.8 million barrels last week to 230.7 million barrels, and distillate stocks dropped nearly 900,000 barrels at 135.9 million barrels, the EIA data showed. As of 0230 GMT, the US Dollar Index was up 0.26% at 98.59.
