-- 米イラン間の戦争終結に向けた協議が依然として停滞し、重要なホルムズ海峡を通る原油の流れが途絶えていることを受け、月曜日の原油価格は上昇した。 ブレント原油は直近で2.7%上昇し1バレル=108.17ドル、ウエスト・テキサス・インターミディエイト(WTI)原油は2.4%上昇し1バレル=96.63ドルとなった。ロイター通信は月曜日の報道で、米国とイランはイランの核開発計画やホルムズ海峡の再開など、様々な問題で依然として大きな隔たりがあると報じた。 ロイター通信は、PVMオイル・アソシエイツのアナリスト、タマス・ヴァルガ氏の「外交的膠着状態により、毎日1000万~1300万バレルの原油が国際市場に出回らず、既に逼迫している原油需給バランスをさらに悪化させている。したがって、原油価格は上昇する一方だ」との見解を引用した。 ゴールドマン・サックスは、中東の生産量減少を理由に、第4四半期の原油価格予測をブレント原油で1バレル90ドル、WTI原油で1バレル83ドルに引き上げた、と同レポートは伝えている。
