# Oil edges higher despite surplus warnings

> Brent and WTI crude prices rose in early Asian trading despite concerns that supply is outpacing demand. JPMorgan estimated a global surplus of 1.1 million barrels per day in September and 1.4 million in October, while Persian Gulf crude and condensate exports recovered to about 86% of pre-war levels.

## Why it matters

Rising exports and weaker demand point to more readily available crude and could weigh on oil prices if the surplus persists. The reported price gains were modest despite those bearish supply signals.
