Crude Oil Outlook: The hopes of a Coronavirus Vaccine is helping the cause of crude oil with the price rising for fourth straight session. The rally is despite the stock-piling of the commodity because of fresh eruption in the coronavirus cases across the globe.
The Covid-19 vaccine has been able to inject a lot of fresh impetus to the otherwise sombre mood around the crude oil, Anuj Gupta, Deputy Vice President, Commodity and Currency Research at Angel Broking said.
The news around vaccine is encouraging as multiple companies have announced results of their test samples, he said. The market is expecting the commercial launches of the vaccines in the near term, Gupta added.
On the issue of stockpiles, Gupta said that the stocks have piled up as the fresh wave of infections is being seen globally. Consumption situation would improve going forward, he said.
He however, cautioned that the logistics and last mile delivery could be a challenge.
