The Cracks Beneath the Rally: CTAs, Fuel Oil & the Refinery Time Bomb
In this episode, Group CEO Greg Newman is joined by Harry Campion-Evans from Onyx Markets and Research Associate Mita Chaturvedi to decode the hidden signals driving oil markets higher as speculative capital surges back into crude - despite mixed macro sentiment and seasonal demand concerns.
Is this a genuine breakout or another false dawn?
This week’s discussion dives into:
• Brent and WTI futures breaking out: bullish momentum or overextended rally?
• Surge in refining utilisation and margin resilience - how long can it last?
• Why CTAs are backing off shorts and what that means for risk appetite
• The China puzzle: record crude inventories, heavy refinery turnarounds, and what to expect next
• OPEC underproduction, Saudi allocations, and the quiet game of signalling restraint
• Pump prices, U.S. gasoline demand weakness, and why refiners may be overproducing into a glut
• Plus: crack spreads, fuel oil strength, and whether the market is setting up for a Q3 reversal
