in addition, investors have welcomed the smooth transition of the contract (WTI) from June to July, unlike the previous one which had shown a fall uncontrolled prices, which had sunk below zero dollars. Since, "it is clear that the feeling has changed a lot over the last months on the market," noted Warren Patterson and Wenyu Yao, analysts ING.
