The OPEC+ Joint Ministerial Monitoring Committee will meet virtually on August 3 to assess the impact of production cuts. The group has implemented about 4.7 million b/d of cuts since October, and Dated Brent was near $80 a barrel.
The committee can recommend policy changes or call emergency meetings, so its review signals possible changes to supply that could move crude prices.
After 175 past neutral policy events, Crude Oil (Brent) moved a median -0.9% over 5 sessions (45% higher; middle half -3.6% to +3.0%), and +0.7% over 20.
Moves of each commodity's benchmark from the last close before the event. Historical reads pool past events of the same kind; they describe what happened, not what will. Not investment advice.
