Group 1: Investment Rating - No investment rating information is provided in the report. Group 2: Core View - This week, crude oil prices remained volatile. On Friday, news of a potential US military attack on Venezuela drove prices up, and on Sunday, OPEC+ confirmed a 137,000 - barrel - per - day production increase in December. Fundamentally, global on - land oil inventories slightly increased, while floating storage inventories slightly decreased.
