Crude should remain a buy on dips due to improvement in the pandemic in India and the recovery in the US, China and Europe, analyst says

London — Oil eased after hitting a two-year peak on Monday, pressured by the prospect of higher Iranian exports though recovering demand and Opec+ supply curbs provided underlying support.

Brent crude fell 35c or 0.5%, to $71.54 a barrel by 10.10am, after earlier hitting $72.27, the highest since May 2019. US West Texas Intermediate touched $70 for the first time since October 2018 but reversed course to trade at $69.22, down 40c or 0.6%. Crude has risen for the past two weeks, and Brent is up by over 37% this year, helped by supply curbs by Opec and allies and demand recovering partly from the pandemic-induced collapse.
