Further uncertainty in oil prices may continue amidst OPEC talks. Expect investors to pay close attention to the weekly EIA Petroleum Status Report (crude oil inventories +2.1M barrels last week) to be announced on Wednesday night. The release of Japan’s January CPI data (-0.1% M/M; +0.2% Y/Y) on Friday morning next week might also affect markets worldwide.
