Oil rose after OPEC+ signaled that it’ll pause output increases next quarter, following a modest hike for next month. The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies said on Sunday they would raise output by 137,000 barrels a day in December, matching expectations. The group will then take a January-to-March hiatus. BP agreed to divest stakes in US shale assets to Sixth Street for $1.5 billion. Funds managed by the US investment firm will purchase non-controlling interests in the Permian and Eagle Ford midstream assets, BP said in a statement. Elsewhere in markets, Ryanair slipped despite a quarterly profit beat after a prolonged rally this year. The Opening Trade has everything you need to know as markets open across Europe.
