(Reuters) - Oil prices rose nearly 2% on Monday as signs of strong demand more than offset the impact of a higher-than-expected OPEC+ output hike for August and fresh concerns about the potential impact of U.S. tariffs.
Brent crude futures settled up $1.28, or 1.9%, at $69.58. U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude settled up 93 cents or 1.4%, at $67.93. Early in the session, Brent had fallen as low as $67.22 and WTI's session low was $65.40.
"The supply picture definitely looks to be elevating; however, the stronger demand is remaining above expectations as well," said Dennis Kissler, senior vice president of trading at BOK Financial.
Travel industry statistics released last week showed that a record number of Americans had planned to travel for the Fourth of July holiday by road and air.
On Saturday, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies in OPEC+ agreed to raise production by 548,000 barrels per day in August, exceeding the 411,000-bpd hikes they made for the prior three months.
The OPEC+ decision will bring nearly 80% of the 2.2 million-bpd voluntary cuts from eight OPEC producers back into the market, RBC Capital analysts, led by Helima Croft, said in a note.
However, the actual output increase has been smaller than planned so far and most of the supply has been from Saudi Arabia, analysts said.
U.S. stocks ended lower on Monday after President Donald Trump released letters to trading partners including Japan, South Korea, Laos and Myanmar, announcing tariffs ranging from 25% to 40%.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average went down 422.17 points or 0.9% to close at 444,06.36, recording its largest one-day point and percentage decline since June 13.
The S&P 500 fell 49.37 points or 0.8% to finish at 6,229.98, snapping its back-to-back gains.
The Nasdaq Composite declined 188.59 points or 0.9% to end at 20,412.52, also snapping back-to-back gains.
