Saudi Arabia says US sought 1 month delay of OPEC+ production cuts

Saudi Arabia said Thursday that the U.S. had urged the kingdom to postpone a decision by OPEC and its allies including Russia to cut oil production by a month. Such a delay could have helped reduce the risk of a spike in gas prices ahead of the U.S. midterm elections next month. A statement issued by the Saudi Foreign Ministry didn't specifically mention the Nov. 8 elections in which U.S. President Joe Biden is trying to maintain his narrow Democratic majority in Congress. However, it stated that the U.S. suggested the cuts be delayed by a month. In the end, OPEC announced the cuts at its Oct. 5 meeting in Vienna. Holding off on cuts would have meant implementing them just before the Nov. 8 election at a time when they likely couldn't drastically influence prices at the pump. Rising oil prices and by extension higher gasoline prices have been a key driver of inflation in the U.S. and around the world, worsening global economic woes as Russia's months-long war on Ukraine also

Saudi Arabia says US sought a month delay of OPEC+ oil cut decision

Saudi Arabia said on Thursday that the US had urged the kingdom to postpone a decision by OPEC and its allies including Russia to cut oil production by a month which would have been just before the upcoming American midterm elections. A statement issued by the Saudi Foreign Ministry didn't specifically mention the elections, crucial to US President Joe Biden maintaining his Democratic Party's narrow majorities in Congress. However, it stated that the US suggested the cuts be delayed by a month as opposed to being implemented at OPEC's October 5 meeting in Vienna. A month delay would have put them just before the November 8 elections where they likely couldn't have drastically influenced prices at the pump. Rising oil prices and by extension higher gasoline prices have been a key driver of inflation in the US and around the world, worsening global economic woes as Russia's monthslong war on Ukraine also has disrupted global food supplies. For Biden, gasoline prices creeping up

Global stock markets advance after strong US hiring, OPEC oil cuts

Global stock markets advanced on Thursday after strong US hiring dampened hopes the Federal Reserve might ease off plans for interest rate hikes and the OPEC group of oil exporters agreed to output cuts to shore up prices. London, Frankfurt and Tokyo gained. Hong Kong declined. Mainland Chinese markets were closed for a holiday. Oil prices rose. The euro edged higher but stayed below USD 1. Wall Street futures edged lower after US stocks fell on Wednesday following a report by payroll processor ADP that employers added 208,000 jobs in September. That showed parts of the economy are still strong, giving ammunition to Fed officials who say more rate hikes are needed to cool inflation that is at a four-decade high. The economy is too strong for the Fed to pivot. The strong start to October is over, said Edward Moya of Oanda in a report. In early trading, London's FTSE 100 was up less than 0.1 per cent at 7,059.11. The DAX in Frankfurt gained 0.7 per cent to 12,610.37 and the CAC 40 i
