Core View of the Report - Crude oil is under pressure due to the expectation of loose supply, and weak demand dominates the oil price trend.

Currently, the market logic is still dominated by weak demand, but if OPEC+ signals production cuts before the December meeting, the oil price may rebound [3]. 3.
