On the morning of October 11, oil prices fell sharply. At the end of the week, Brent crude oil fell by 2.49 USD/barrel, or 3.82%, to 62.73 USD/barrel; WTI crude oil also fell by 2.61 USD/barrel, or 4.24%, to 58.90 USD/barrel.
Both of these world benchmark oil contracts have reached their lowest levels in more than 5 months. For the whole week, they have decreased by about 4%.
According to Reuters, world oil prices fell sharply after US President Donald Trump threatened to impose higher tariffs on Chinese goods. This raised concerns about oil demand in the context of an already oversupplied market. It is worth noting that analysts said the market's developments were related to many factors, of which Donald Trump's threat to sharply increase tariffs on Chinese goods was only the latest factor.

Meanwhile, Israel and the Hamas movement have signed a ceasefire agreement in Gaza, marking the first step in US President Donald Trump's efforts to end the conflict in the region.
