Crude oil futures ended lower on Wednesday as investors dissected OPEC+'s monthly report and contrasted it with the International Energy Agency's (IEA) recent forecast on demand and supply.

It has also lowered its forecast for 2026 demand for crude oil from OPEC+ member nations by 1,00,000. Meanwhile, the IEA's forecasts indicated that supply could exceed demand by about 4 million bpd in 2026.
