However, this week’s decision on the extension of OPEC+ output cuts limited losses.

Crude oil prices resumed their upward trend on Tuesday, stimulated by OPEC’s intention to proceed with production cuts until inventories will decrease to their five-year average, despite President Trump’s recent tweet.
