Global macro overview for 12/10/2015:
The latest OPEC monthly report has just been released and it shows a global oil demand forecast cut by 40kbpd (thousand barrels per day) in 2016. That means the 2016 oil demand is seen at the level of 1.25mbpd. Nevertheless, OPEC forecasts a 130k drop in non-OPEC demand in 2016, mainly due to the lower prices reducing supplies stockpiles in the US and in other parts of the world.
