An initial deal between the United States and Iran has led to plunging oil prices, signaling broad market optimism. Attention is now on whether Chinese firms sanctioned for Iran-related business will see immediate relief.
As plunging oil prices signal broad market optimism following an initial deal between the United States and Iran, attention has turned to whether Chinese firms sanctioned for Iran-related business will see immediate relief, though analysts remain cautious.
“New purchases of Iranian oil ostensibly wouldn’t be subject to fresh sanctions, but at the same time, I imagine we won’t see a rush to lift existing sanctions on Chinese importers of Iranian oil,” said Lynn Song, chief economist for Greater China at ING.
“There is some strong optimism in ways that have concrete effects for, say, commodities flows and financial markets,” said Nick Marro, principal economist for Asia and global trade lead at the Economist Intelligence Unit, citing the paring of crude prices.
“So, there are reasons for optimism, but I still think we should be cautious about this now,” Marro said.
