Similarly, U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures saw a slight increase of 13 cents, trading at $77.85.

ANZ analysts highlighted that gasoline usage will be closely monitored as the Northern Hemisphere enters the summer driving season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They noted that while U.S. holiday travel is expected to reach a post-COVID high, factors such as improved fuel efficiency and the rise of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/blog\/education\/in-the-ev-boom-some-traders-like-this-share-cfd-better-than-tesla\/\">electric vehicles<\/a> (EVs) could soften oil demand.

This index is the U.S. Federal Reserve&#8217;s preferred measure of inflation and could provide further insights into interest rate policy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The minutes from the recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/analysis\/us-fed-officials-tentative-on-interest-rate-adjustments-with-concerns-on-inflation\/\">Federal Reserve<\/a> meeting revealed that some officials are prepared to tighten interest rates further if necessary to combat persistent inflation. This prospect of prolonged higher interest rates has bolstered the U.S. dollar, making oil more expensive for holders of other currencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Start trading now \u2014 click <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/get-trading\/forex-trading-account\/?utm_campaign=account_c&amp;utm_source=dma&amp;utm_medium=website\"><strong>here<\/strong><\/a><strong> to create your live VT Markets account.<\/strong><\/p>\n\r\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Start trading now \u2014 click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/en-ca\/trade-now\/\">here<\/a> to create your real VT Markets account.<\/b>\n\n<\/p>\n\n<!-- vt-src:13457 -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key points: Oil prices saw minimal movement in early Asian trading on Monday, as market participants are focused on the upcoming OPEC+ meeting scheduled for June 2.
