Oil's Lost Decade Is About to Be Repeated
In 1983, the figure stood at 56.6 million barrels. In 2023, 40 years later, it was 40 million barrels more: 96.3 million. Annual figures may jump around thanks to wars, recessions, and the rise and fall of economies, but averaged over the longer term, every decade we've added an extra 10 million daily barrels to the headline total.

Crude Prices Retreat on Energy Demand Concerns
September WTI crude oil (CLU25) today is down -0.93 (-1.40%), and September RBOB gasoline (RBU25) is down -0.0088 (-0.42%). Crude oil and gasoline prices are under pressure today, with crude falling to a 1-week low. Concerns about weakening energy demand are weighing on crude prices after the US Jul ISM services index unexpectedly declined. Crude prices also have a negative carryover from Sunday when OPEC+ raised its crude production levels, stoking fears of a global supply glut. More News from Barchart Nat-Gas Prices Tumble on Higher US Nat-Gas Production Global Oil Glut Concerns Weigh on Crude Prices Crude Prices Slip After OPEC+ Raises Crude Production Levels Markets move fast. Keep up by reading our FREE midday Barchart Brief newsletter for exclusive charts, analysis, and headlines. Weakness in global economic news is bearish for energy demand and crude prices. The US Jul ISM services index unexpectedly fell -0.7 to 50.1, weaker than expectations of an increase to 51.5. Also, the Eurozone Jul S&P composite PMI was revised downward by -0.1 to 50.9 from the previously reported 51.0. Concerns about a global oil supply glut are weighing on crude prices after OPEC+ on Sunday endorsed an additional 547,000 bpd increase in its crude production for September 1. OPEC+ is boosting output to reverse the 2-year-long production cut, gradually restoring a total of 2.2 million bpd of production by September 2026. After Sunday's meeting, the group said it will closely monitor demand and may maintain production levels, restart halted supplies, or reverse recent production increases. OPEC+ has 1.66 million bpd of supplies that are currently due to remain offline until late 2026. The International Energy Agency said inventories have been accumulating at a rate of 1 million bpd and that the global crude oil market faces a surplus by Q4-2025 equivalent to 1.5% of global crude consumption. OPEC July crude production fell -20,000 bpd to 28.31 million bpd. Crude prices have support after President Trump said last Monday that he would impose new tariffs on countries buying Russian energy unless Russia reaches a ceasefire with Ukraine by this Friday. JPMorgan Chase warned that if enforced, oil markets would be unable to ignore the impact of triple-digit tariffs on Russian oil, given the significant scale of Russian exports and limited OPEC spare capacity, which could potentially lead to a supply shock. The European Union recently approved fresh sanctions on Russian oil due to its aggression against Ukraine. The sanctions package includes cutting off 20 more Russian banks from the international payments system SWIFT, as well as restrictions imposed on Russian petroleum refined in other countries. A large oil refinery in India, part-owned by Russia's Rosneft PJSC, was also blacklisted. Additionally, 105 more ships in Russia's shadow fleet were sanctioned, pushing the number of sanctioned ships above 400. A decline in crude oil held worldwide on tankers is bullish for oil prices. Vortexa reported Monday that crude oil stored on tankers that have been stationary for at least seven days fell by -15% w/w to 79.12 million bbl in the week ended August 1. Last Wednesday's weekly EIA report showed that (1) US crude oil inventories as of July 25 were -5.6% below the seasonal 5-year average, (2) gasoline inventories were -0.7% below the seasonal 5-year average, and (3) distillate inventories were -15.2% below the 5-year seasonal average. US crude oil production in the week ending July 25 rose +0.3% w/w to 13.314 million bpd, modestly below the record high of 13.631 million bpd posted in the week of 12/6/2024. Baker Hughes reported last Friday that the number of active US oil rigs in the week ending August 1 decreased by -5 rigs to a new 3.75-year low of 410 rigs. Over the past 2.5 years, the number of US oil rigs has fallen sharply from the 5.25-year high of 627 rigs reported in December 2022.

Jim Cramer on Amazon: 'It's Just Going to Be Another Buy'
Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) is one of the stocks that Jim Cramer spoke about. Cramer believes the stock's sell-off creates a buying opportunity. He said: 'After the close, we drifted from lunacy back to reality. Amazon reported what I thought was a good quarter… Much better than expected sales at every division, even if the web services margin was like, oh, give me a break. Unfortunately, Amazon gave mixed guidance, but they always do that. That's what they do. It's my largest position in the Charitable Trust. I'm not worried about it at all. I am worried about, what do you think? What I'm worried about Figma's law and Amazon stock got hit. But you know, please, I mean, it's getting crushed in after hours. It's just going to be another buy.'
