This morning, the New York futures for Brent have fallen by 0.35% to $ 48.08 and WTI down 0.14% to $ 50.12 per barrel. Thus, the black gold is traded in the red zone on a potential correction as OPEC agreement on joint action to stabilize the oil market still supports the prices. The cartel at an informal meeting in Algeria on Wednesday agreed on a production limit in the range of 32,5-33 million barrels of oil per day. The final decision will be taken at a meeting on November 30 in Vienna. Also, traders note statistics from the US oil service company Baker Hughes.
