David Woo Brent Crude Oil If the US sanctions Chinese banks and refiners over Iranian oil purchases, oil will be bullish in the near term (this week)

Wealthion 2026-08-18 2026-08-25

The prediction is conditional ('if they do that') and claims oil will be bullish this week. The period high was $94.81 on day 3 (a +4.2% rise from $91.02), suggesting some bullish movement mid-week, but the target date close was $86.01 (-5.5%), and the period ended at the low of $85.85. The prediction doesn't specify a magnitude, just 'bullish,' and while there was a brief rally to $94.81, the overall week was bearish. However, the grade depends on whether 'bullish this week' means any upward move occurred or whether the week ended higher — the period high did show a meaningful rally, but the overall trend was down.

The Trump-Xi summit (May 12–15, 2026) produced some trade commitments (Boeing aircraft, agricultural purchases, new trade boards), but expert analysis from CFR, Brookings, Atlantic Council, and CSIS consistently described the visit as lacking major breakthroughs — 'thin on substance,' 'big show with little to show for it,' and 'few specific public commitments.' The prediction that there would be no major breakthrough was correct. (https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/content-series/fastthinking/what-did-trump-and-xi-accomplish/)
