Oil Output Nears Pre-Iran War Levels as Bond Yields and Fed Stay in Focus
OPEC says oil production is nearing pre-Iran war levels, while reports flag bond market borrowing costs, UK GDP data and the latest US CPI report.
What happened
Al Jazeera reports that OPEC says oil production is nearing the levels seen before the Iran war. According to the outlet, Saudi Arabia reported that its output rose to the highest levels in months, even though shipping disruptions continue.
MarketWatch reports that falling oil prices are no longer enough to bring down borrowing costs in the US bond market, which it calls the most important in the world.
Reuters reports that sterling was steady after UK GDP data, with a Federal Reserve official due to speak next. Bloomberg, for its part, looks at what is flashing warning signs for the Fed in the latest US CPI report.
Context
Oil prices are often watched as a driver of inflation, which in turn influences interest rates and the borrowing costs set in bond markets.
Why it matters
The reports show how energy supply, inflation data and central bank signals are being read together by currency and bond markets.
