Rising Oil Prices: Impact on Auto Industry - Potentially Good News for Japanese Automakers

OPEC’s deal to cut oil production, the first agreement in eight years, quickly led to a sharp rise in Brent Crude prices, today rising above US$53.20, compared to US$48.10 two days ago. If we assume that OPEC members abide by the deal and non-OPEC members restrain themselves (obviously, neither of which is guaranteed), oil prices could continue moving up, which would have major implications for auto manufacturers. In this report, we identify key beneficiaries among the Japanese automakers.
