ranger,
I believe that OPEC + countries went through the tough time last year and they can reduce production further to preserve their rights. after all the reserves of USA China Japan India and South Korea are built in those soft prices period any offer of soft prices again will see prices down to earth. I think OPEC will stick to their guns no matter what the global economy. They are not responsible for Covid to bear all the costs by themselves. They 've being conned once, I don't think they are going to repeat it again, this is why they proposed to USA to increase production by themselves if they want more petrol.
The funniest thing is that USA contacted Russia to participate in increased production although it is against their interests.
at the moment OPEC are on 400,000 barrels increase each month, I won't be surprised to see them reverse that to -400,000 barrels or more a month. The big economies re getting giddier by the day.
