OPEC monthly market report shows no change in demand outlook-Brent unfazed

The regular monthly oil market report from OPEC has just been released. The oil cartel have just said their 2026/7 demand outlook forecast is unchanged. The demand outlook for 2027/8 is also unchanged. 

Ahead of this report Brent was stepping back slightly from an earlier high this morning which had seen the January contract rebound to $93.61 per barrel. It was trading around $93.15 when OPEC released their report. The immediate reaction is not exactly electric and this report has actually added nothing new. On the plus side, OPEC have not lowered demand, but that is about the extent of it. Brent crude is right now at $93.15
