OPEC+ to Curb Production by 100,000 Barrels a Day

The video discusses the recent decline in oil prices, which have fallen below $90 per barrel, a level undesirable for both Saudi Arabia and Russia. It highlights OPEC's attempt to stabilize the market through messaging rather than actual supply changes. The video also examines the potential impact of the European Union's upcoming ban on Russian crude imports, which could remove a significant amount of oil from the market. This situation presents a challenge for OPEC, especially with Russia being a key member, as it may not want other members to increase production and take its market share.
