Oil Price Outlook: Oil prices are expected to decline by the end of the year due to weak demand, especially from China, with potential for prices to drop below $50 a barrel in 2025 if economic conditions worsen.
Market Risks: Analysts suggest there is a greater risk of a price collapse rather than a spike, influenced by proposed U.S. tariffs and competitive pressures from Canadian and Mexican oil exports.
