The daily oil analysis for March 18, 2021 will discuss the movement of oil prices in market trading last Wednesday was in a downward range. The decline in oil prices is due to information that countries in the Eurozone have stopped the production of vaccines from AstraZeneca.

The increase in US oil reserves in the Energy Information Administration (EIA) report last night, coupled with the decline in demand for fuel oil and especially in some countries in the European region has stopped using the AstraZeneca vaccine. On the other hand, Germany has reported an increase in Covid-19 patients. In addition, Italy and France will again impose lockdowns. The greenback weakened quite sharply against several other major currencies in Wednesday's trading. The weakening of the US Dollar is also accompanied by a decline in US bond yields with a tenor of 10 years.
