供应过剩担忧持续主导市场导致周一油价下跌居民搬家

据道琼斯1月4日消息，尽管中东局势紧张，但市场仍受到原油供应过剩的主导，原油期货价格周一下跌。

周一市场交易波动剧烈，因报道称沙特阿拉伯在处决一位什叶派教士后引发沙特与伊朗之间的外交争端，原油期货先是上涨。但原油期货涨势随后消退，因新的迹象表明原油供应过剩的局面正在加剧，该局面已于去年令油价下跌逾30%。

沙特和伊朗是欧佩克中两个最大的原油生产国，两国关系紧张可能加剧欧佩克内部的意见不合，各成员国意见不一已经导致欧佩克未能就稳定油价战略达成一致。

纽约商交所二月交割的轻质低硫原油期货下跌28美分，至每桶36.76美元，跌幅0.8%。ICE欧洲期货交易所布伦特原油期货下跌6美分，至每桶37.22美元，跌幅0.2%。

By Nicole Friedman

NEW YORK--Oil prices fell Monday even as tensions flared in the Middl楚雄e East, the latest twist in a market overwhelmed by crude supplies.

In a day of volatile trading, oil futures at first soared on news of a diplomatic rift between Saudi Arabia and Iran that was sparked by Saudi Arabia's execution of a Shiite cleric. But the rally fizzled on new signs that the supply glut that pushed prices down more than 30% last year is growing.

Saudi Arabia and Iran are two of the largest producers i平垫圈n the 鱼丸机Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, and increased tensions between the two nations could add to the discord within OPEC that has prevented the group from agreeing on a strategy to stabilize oil prices.

Light, sweet crude for February delivery fell 28 cents, or 0.8%, to $36.76 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Brent, the global benchmark, fell 6 cents, or 0.2%,阳台 to $37.22 a barrel on ICE Futures Europe.
