On October 8, SINOPEC CORP rose 3.17% in regular trading, trading at HK$4.56 with turnover of HK$163 million. The Hong Kong oil sector rallied broadly, with PetroChina and China Oilfield Services also gaining over 2% and 3%, respectively.
The move was fueled by the EIA's significant upward revision of oil price forecasts for both this year and next, noting accelerating global inventory draws and the ongoing impact from the blockage of oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz. This has reinforced market optimism over the earnings outlook for oil and gas stocks, with SINOPEC CORP, as an integrated energy giant, directly benefiting from the elevated oil price environment.
