格林尼治時(shí)間12月21日11:17,布倫特原油價(jià)格上漲了84美分,至每桶72.36美元,漲幅1.2%;美國(guó)西德克薩斯中質(zhì)原油(WTI)價(jià)格上漲了95美分,至每桶69.56美元,漲幅1.4%。
OANDA高級(jí)分析師Edward Moya表示:“由于對(duì)疫情的擔(dān)憂情緒已在很大程度上被消化,原油價(jià)格在經(jīng)歷了艱難的幾天以后正在反彈。”
歐洲各國(guó)都在考慮對(duì)人員流動(dòng)采取新的限制措施。在圣誕節(jié)前幾天,快速蔓延的奧密克戎流感病毒席卷全球,旅行計(jì)劃陷入混亂,并令金融市場(chǎng)感到不安。
奧密克戎感染在歐洲、美國(guó)和亞洲迅速蔓延,包括在日本。在日本,一個(gè)軍事基地的單個(gè)集群病例數(shù)已增加到至少180例。
倫敦經(jīng)紀(jì)商PVM oil Associates的石油分析師塔瑪斯?瓦爾加表示:“這是一個(gè)務(wù)實(shí)的市場(chǎng),它希望看漲,但知道像今天上午那樣的緩解式反彈不會(huì)持續(xù)太久。”
“上行空間可能有限,更多限制措施將帶來(lái)新一輪拋售,”他補(bǔ)充稱。
盡管如此,Moderna Inc周一表示,其疫苗的加強(qiáng)劑似乎可以防止實(shí)驗(yàn)室測(cè)試中快速傳播的奧密克戎變種,這給投資者帶來(lái)了一些希望。

Oil Prices Rise but Omicron Worries Linger
Oil prices rebounded on Tuesday after a sharp fall in the previous session as investors' appetite for risk improved, although they remained cautious amid the rapid spread of the Omicron coronavirus variant across the globe.
Brent crude was up 84 cents, or 1.2%, at $72.36 a barrel by 1117 GMT, and U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude rose 95 cents, or 1.4%, to $69.56 a barrel.
"After a rough couple of days, crude prices are rebounding as much of the COVID wall of worry has been priced in," said Edward Moya, senior analyst at OANDA.
Countries across Europe were considering new curbs on movement as the fast-moving Omicron variant swept the world days before Christmas, throwing travel plans into chaos and unnerving financial markets.
Omicron infections are multiplying rapidly across Europe, the United States, and Asia, including in Japan, where a single cluster at a military base has grown to at least 180 cases.
"This is a pragmatic market that wants to be bullish but knows relief rallies, like the one this morning, will not last," said Tamas Varga, oil analyst at London brokerage PVM Oil Associates.
"The upside is likely to be limited and more restrictions will be greeted with renewed selling," he added.
Still, Moderna Inc said on Monday that a booster dose of its COVID-19 vaccine appeared to be protective against the fast-spreading Omicron variant in laboratory testing, providing some hope to investors.
On the supply front, OPEC+ compliance with oil production cuts rose to 117% in November from 116% a month earlier, two sources from the group told Reuters, indicating production levels remain well below agreed targets.
In the United States, crude oil inventories were expected to have fallen for a fourth consecutive week, while distillate and gasoline stockpiles likely rose last week, a preliminary Reuters poll showed on Monday.
The poll was conducted ahead of reports from the American Petroleum Institute, an industry group, due on Tuesday, and the EIA, the statistical arm of the U.S. Department of Energy, due on Wednesday.
