What moves oil and gas prices
Supply
OPEC+ quotas, US shale output and outages affect crude supply.
Demand
Growth, travel and industrial activity set how much oil and gas gets used.
Inventories & seasonality
Weekly stock data and winter heating demand move gas in particular.
Macro & the dollar
Oil is priced in dollars, so rate and currency shifts feed straight into it.
