In the global markets, oil prices fell on Thursday, giving up some of the recent strong gains on profit-taking and speculation that the market’s strength could tempt producers like Saudi Arabia to reduce output by less, according to a report by news agency Reuters.

Brent crude fell 40 cents (0.7 per cent) to $61.07 a barrel, as of 0350 GMT, after touching its highest since January 2020 on Wednesday, after a strong run in recent days driven by the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies, known as OPEC+, agreed output cuts and vaccine rollouts fired up hopes of a recovery in demand. US crude slid 35 cents (0.6 per cent) to $58.33 a barrel, the report said.
