Concerns over higher rates saw (WTI) lose the $90 per barrel level, while also fell sharply from a 10-month high hit earlier this week, as markets were slapped with a bout of profit taking.<\/p>\n

But more positive was an unexpected draw in and , as refiners slowed down production with the end of the summer season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The overall draw in inventories was also driven by strong oil exports, indicating some resilience in global crude demand.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Wednesday\u2019s inventory data showed that U.S. oil markets remained tight, furthering bets that global supplies will tighten further in the coming months.\u00a0<\/p>\n

JP Morgan sees Brent as high as $120 a barrel on tighter supply\u00a0<\/h2>\n

Analysts at investment bank JP Morgan warned that Brent oil prices could rise as far as $120 a barrel, especially as markets tighten further in the wake of supply cuts by Saudi Arabia and Russia.<\/p>\n

The supply cuts were the key driver of a nearly 30% rally in crude over the past two months, and are expected to continue underpinning prices in the near-term.<\/p>\n

But JPMorgan also warned that higher oil prices could dent global economic growth, especially with interest rates also set to remain higher for longer.\u00a0<\/p>\n
