Goldman Sachs released a report stating it maintains its base case that ongoing adjustments to Middle East oil supplies will eventually push crude prices lower, though renewed conflict remains a significant upside risk. The bank raised its December Brent crude price forecast to $90 per barrel, while keeping its 2027 average Brent crude forecast at $80 per barrel. It also projects December 2024 WTI crude prices to average $81 per barrel, and 2027 WTI prices to average $73 per barrel. Goldman Sachs noted that if 2027 average daily oil production in the Gulf region is 5 million barrels lower than its February 2026 level—instead of the 300,000-barrel drop in the base case—2027 average Brent crude prices could reach around $125 per barrel. Conversely, if 2027 average daily Gulf production is 1 million barrels higher than its February 2026 level, Brent crude prices could fall to above $60 per barrel in 2027. (Jin10)

Market pricing for a rate hike on October 28 has fallen to around 19%, while a December rate hike is fully priced in.
