U.S. oil prices stabilized near their lowest levels since 2021, with West Texas Intermediate crude trading near $57 per barrel and Brent crude around $60, as traders assessed the prospects for a ceasefire in Ukraine, which could ease restrictions on Russian oil exports and increase global supply.

The American president reported that reaching an agreement to end the war in Ukraine is closer than ever, following talks with the Ukrainian president and European leaders. However, the Russian president has not retreated from his demands to control vast territories, leaving doubts about the possibility of achieving a comprehensive peace agreement.

Progress was noted in talks held in Berlin. Meanwhile, experts expect Brent crude to move within a volatile range of $60 to $65 per barrel, amid an expanding global supply surplus resulting from increased production from two different producers and the OPEC+ alliance restarting previously halted output.

In a related context, gold prices declined after five days of gains, with the precious metal trading at $4,280 per ounce, awaiting the release of U.S. jobs and inflation data, which will determine the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy direction for 2026.

Gold and silver achieved exceptional annual performance, with gold rising more than 60% and silver doubling in value, marking their best performance since 1979, supported by central bank purchases and weak demand for sovereign bonds and currencies.

Its pricing point is physically based at the pipeline hub in Cushing, Oklahoma.

Brent crude

Brent crude is a major global benchmark for oil prices, originating from the Brent oil field in the North Sea. It is named after the Brent goose and has been a key pricing reference since its discovery in the 1970s, influencing the cost of two-thirds of the world’s internationally traded crude oil.
