Citigroup: Trump's victory in the election may pose downward pressure on oil prices until 2025.

If Trump wins the US election, the dollar will soar, and oil prices will fall in early trading in Europe.

The strong dollar makes it more expensive for holders of bulk commodities in other currencies, which typically reduces demand.

Dutch international analysts said in a statement: 'In the medium to long term, Trump's victory may be even more unfavorable to oil due to trade and foreign policy reasons.'

Oil prices are also under pressure from signals of weak US demand, with data from the American Petroleum Institute showing that US crude oil inventories have increased more than expected.

Hedge funds BlueBay and Phoenix shifted their focus to crude oil, US bonds, and the US banking industry on Wednesday.

Trump's support for the oil industry, including loosening environmental regulations, could lead to a decline in crude oil prices. 'Trump's policies may increase US supply,' said Sam Berridge, portfolio manager of the Strategic Natural Resources Fund in Perth, Australia, which is part of the $7 billion Perennial Value Management.

Citigroup predicted on Wednesday that a second term for US President Trump could create downward pressure on oil prices until 2025, with the Brent crude average price expected to be $60 per barrel, mainly due to potential trade tariffs and increased oil supply.

Citigroup pointed out that the impact imposed by Trump may prompt OPEC+ to accelerate production cuts, while potentially easing geopolitical tensions, releasing some offshore oil back to the market. Citigroup states that Trump may provide potential tax incentives for capital investment in the oil exploration and production sector, and overturn measures such as increasing royalties by the Biden administration to support the oil industry.

The domestic aviation kerosene ex-factory price in October fell to 5637 yuan/ton, a significant decrease of 13.3% from the average ex-factory price of aviation kerosene in the first three quarters of 2024.

According to the 2024 semi-annual report of Air China Limited, a 5% increase/decrease in the average fuel price in the first half of 2024 will lead to a rise/fall of 1.357 billion yuan in the company's fuel costs.

Institutions point out that aviation, as a typical pro-cyclical category, market style and external variables such as oil prices and exchange rates may catalyze sector stock prices. At the same time, the industry's supply growth rate slowdown trend is expected to continue, and we believe that the improvement in civil aviation supply and demand will further materialize.

Civil aviation related companies include:

Air China Limited (00753), China Eastern Airlines (00670), China Southern Airlines (01055), etc.
