coronavirus is a nightmare for tourism in macau crosley worried about being. declined off. somewhere but we believe after the fire it has gotten and they will come back tourism operators are hopeful their luck will turn. when china sneezes the whole world catches a cold he asian superpower is now intrinsically a maced within the global economic system and the corona virus is a case study in that in recent days global stocks have plunged on fears the disease could impact companies bottom lines we're seeing a rebound almost exchanges today but the oil industry hasn't escaped the contagion demand in china has dropped by about 3000000 barrels a day as factories close operations and airlines canceled flights this is called so prices slide in the past month the price of bring crude is full of about 15 percent

prompting the world's oil cartel opec to consider for the production cuts well today we're seeing a slight recovery in the cost of crude but sure if that's a sign of what's to come let's bring in joseph gottschall a he's head of oil and gas analysis at fitch solutions so someone sneezes suddenly oil prices low. just explain that 1st of all this china connection with the rest of the world. sure no problem what we see going into the end of 2019 was a stabilization in china's economy that was in do in part to the signing of the u.s. china trade deal which kind of reassured markets and kind of provided some stability for the economic outlook for china sue for 2020 we know we had some. issues potentially with growth but we figured that the chinese economy would stabilize but coronavirus is really not china back the imports as you mentioned

earlier of $3000000.00 barrels in january down from the month before those are really the issues that we're looking at now so the questions around how the coronavirus will impact chinese demands are becoming more clear cinna pac and other independent refiners have reduced the amount of crude that they're refining. and that's really an indication of weakening demand and you know the key question mark is that uncertainty around how long the impacts from coronavirus will impact the the wider economy and then also maybe some of the 2nd order effects economies nearby as well as globally and what do you think those of you think a fishel cuts in oil production is this is that. from an optics standpoint i think the narrative that opec would want to support is that they are committed to managing the market and that would help support oil prices

but as far as meeting the kind of demand that spin eroded in january of 3 1000000 barrels i think that would be quite difficult for opac to do given their kind of current cuts as well you know we have other outages globally libya currently has about 900000 barrels off the market so that's helping a lot as far as the the narrative that markets will look for in terms of the settlement i believe that opec will have to take some action to kind of stem the potential for prices to fall further just briefly i think it's interesting to note the top oil exporter saudi arabia is saying that psychological factors are driving the impacts of the buyers in the oil demand do you agree with that well i think there is some sentiment related issues mainly the uncertainty you know that the headline grabbing aspects of some global contagion you know it evokes a lot of. fear and but you know also the idea of the unknown so you know defining

the certainty aspect is key but you know with the weakness we saw in china's demand 102019 the kind of modest stabilization we were expecting for 2020 you know there are physical reasons why prices have dropped mainly because of that $3000000.00 barrel per day drop in demand for january sailors of you know there is definitely some some sentiment aspect but there is definitely some real physical trade that decreased as a result they will have to leave the veges to get julie thank you very much. thank you for your time cathay pacific is cutting almost all flights to mainland china the hong kong based carrier continues to grapple with a rep of conscience of the coronavirus many airlines from the u.s. u.k. and south korea have already scrapped all chinese flights some countries like singapore and italy have imposed travel bans. 25000 flights to within china are being canceled and civil aviation authority has urged all chinese airlines to keep
