After the Spring Festival, the international crude oil market fluctuated and declined. On the one hand, the Federal Reserve issued hawkish signals, delaying interest rate cuts and suppressing market confidence; On the other hand, the Gaza ceasefire negotiations suppress the risk premium of crude oil; In addition, the total number of oil and gas drilling rigs in the United States has increased to the highest level since August 2023, and the implementation of OPEC's production reduction is not optimistic, which has suppressed oil prices. The combined influence of bullish and bearish factors has led to a mainly fluctuating downward trend in the international oil price range during this cycle.
