Citigroup's head of commodities research attributed the collapse in crude since early October to the State Department's shifting stance on Iran sanctions, President Trump's tweets about OPEC supply, the trade war with China, and rapid growth in U.S. shale output. These factors are all cited as drivers of the price drop.
Policy signals and shale supply growth point to a longer period of ample crude, which tends to weigh on energy input costs and biofuel-linked demand for feedstocks.

Cites shifted Iran sanctions stance, Trump's OPEC tweets, trade war and US shale growth as causes, which broadly explain the decline but it is dated after the window and is retrospective.
