Crude oil fell 10.04% in the previous period. Affected by the external market, domestic crude oil futures soon hit the limit. Industry insiders believe that the crude oil storage space in the US market has gradually approached its limit after several weeks of continuous accumulation. Crude oil is facing a severe oversupply and high market inventories. With the introduction of various travel restrictions and shutdowns, most of the United States is at a standstill. The only potential crude oil buyers are entities such as refineries or airlines that need actual delivery, but amid weeks of continued weakness in terminal demand, idle storage space for these large physical enterprises is very scarce. As a result, there is a lack of intention to buy further oil spot.
