Oil ended Tuesday’s trading with small gains as investors braced for the upcoming OPEC+ meeting which is not expected to result in any major production increase.
Specifically, the September crude contract gained 53 cents, or 0.6%, to settle at $94.42 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract plunged nearly 5% on Monday.

OPEC and its allies (OPEC+) meet tomorrow on September production levels. With incoming data showing a slowdown in growth in Europe and the US, the Agency is not expected to approve its production increase despite calls from US President Joe Biden.
