Lowest ever oil prices during coronavirus pandemic In 2020, the coronavirus pandemic resulted in crude oil prices hitting a major slump as oil demand drastically declined following lockdowns and travel restrictions. Initial outlooks and uncertainty surrounding the course of the pandemic brought about a disagreement between two of the largest oil producers, Russia and Saudi Arabia, in early March. Bilateral talks between global oil producers ended in agreement on April 13th, with promises to cut petroleum output and hopes rising that these might help stabilize the oil price in the coming weeks. However, with storage facilities and oil tankers quickly filling up, fears grew over where to store excess oil, leading to benchmark prices seeing record negative prices between April 20 and April 22, 2020. How crude oil prices are determined As with most commodities, crude oil prices are impacted by supply and demand, as well as inventories and market sentiment. However, as oil is most often traded in future contracts (whereby a contract is agreed upon, while the product delivery will follow in the next two to three months), market speculation is one of the principal determinants for oil prices. Traders make conclusions on how production output and consumer demand will likely develop over the coming months, leaving room for uncertainty. Spot prices differ from futures in so far as they reflect the current market price of a commodity.

The 2025 annual OPEC oil price stood at ***** U.S. dollars per barrel, as of May. This would be lower than the 2024 average, which amounted to ***** U.S. dollars. The abbreviation OPEC stands for Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and includes Algeria, Angola, Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, and the United Arab Emirates. The aim of the OPEC is to coordinate the oil policies of its member states. It was founded in 1960 in Baghdad, Iraq. The OPEC Reference Basket The OPEC crude oil price is defined by the price of the so-called OPEC (Reference) basket. This basket is an average of prices of the various petroleum blends that are produced by the OPEC members. Some of these oil blends are, for example: Saharan Blend from Algeria, Basra Light from Iraq, Arab Light from Saudi Arabia, BCF 17 from Venezuela, et cetera. By increasing and decreasing its oil production, OPEC tries to keep the price between a given maxima and minima. Benchmark crude oil The OPEC basket is one of the most important benchmarks for crude oil prices worldwide. Other significant benchmarks are UK Brent, West Texas Intermediate (WTI), and Dubai Crude (Fateh). Because there are many types and grades of oil, such benchmarks are indispensable for referencing them on the global oil market. The 2025 fall in prices was the result of weakened demand outlooks exacerbated by extensive U.S. trade tariffs.

This current paper evaluates the variational dependence between WTI crude oil and stock returns in the automotive sector, encompassing those operated in New York (Tesla, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Honda) and Shanghai (Chongqing, BYD, JAC, and SAIC), utilising wavelet coherence analysis. The analysis employs daily datasets from January 2013, to December 2022. Findings from the wavelet coherence analysis reveal diverse and asymmetric correlations among the sample markets. Notably, crude oil price shocks exert a significantly adverse impact on automobile equities, particularly during monthly to quarterly intervals amid the global health crisis and the Russia-Ukraine conflict era, while weekly and annual intervals of the same period display varying levels of integration, albeit mostly weak to moderate. Prior to the global health crisis, crude oil price fluctuations positively influenced certain automobile equity markets, notably Honda, Toyota, and Volkswagen. Toyota and BYD returns acted as a refuge for WTI returns in the long run, while Tesla, Volkswagen, and JAC returns served as both hedge and safe haven assets over the same horizon. Moreover, the Shanghai Stock Exchange exhibits greater reactivity to shocks compared to the New York Stock Exchange, with crude oil driving automobile stocks across the observation period. Validation through Diks and Panchenko causality tests confirms these results, with minor exceptions. By elucidating the crude oil-equity interdependence across diverse timeframes, this inquiry furnishes noteworthy insights conducive to policy formulation, alongside substantiating evidence for the development of diversification strategies and the implementation of risk management protocols.
