OPEC+ to Boost Oil Production Faster as Saudi Arabia Targets Quota Violators

OPEC+ to Boost Oil Production Faster as Saudi Arabia Targets Quota Violators
OPEC+ plans to speed up oil production increases, potentially adding up to 2.2 million barrels per day by November, as Saudi Arabia seeks to penalize members like Iraq and Kazakhstan for exceeding output quotas. The move marks a major shift from Riyadh’s usual market-balancing stance, aiming instead to reclaim market share amid low oil prices and weakening demand. Despite prior agreements to keep production cuts—nearly 5% of global demand—in place through 2026, the group has already approved significant output hikes for May and June and is expected to continue this trend through the fall unless compliance improves. The decision also aligns with pressure from U.S. President Donald Trump, who is urging OPEC+ to increase supply to help reduce domestic gasoline prices amid ongoing inflation and trade tensions. Analysts warn that these accelerated hikes could further depress oil prices unless stricter adherence to quotas is enforced.
Markets Brace for Buffett Transition, Fed Decision, and Key Earnings Amid Economic Uncertainty
This week, markets are closely watching Warren Buffett’s announcement that Greg Abel will take over as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway by year-end, a shift that could influence the broader market given Berkshire's $1.1 trillion valuation. The company’s stock hit a record high, boosting investor sentiment as the S&P 500 logged its longest winning streak since 2004. Meanwhile, all eyes turn to the Federal Reserve’s policy meeting on Wednesday, with interest rates expected to remain unchanged amid mixed economic signals and growing pressure from President Trump to lower rates. The Fed’s decision comes as inflation rises and GDP shrinks, forcing a delicate balance between price stability and employment. Investors will also digest a flurry of earnings from giants like Disney, Ford, AMD, and Palantir, while reassessing the relevance of the "sell in May" strategy amid policy-driven volatility and ongoing U.S.-China trade tensions.
