“The bulls continue to focus on sanctions against Iran and the risk of supply shortage due to the actions of OPEC+, geopolitical risks, the Iranian factor and collapse of production in Venezuela. Judging by the behavior of the market, investors are confident that all of these factors can compensate for the continuing growth of production in the States”, — stated in the review expert.
