Shanghai crude oil futures night session up 2.57% to 694.70 yuan/barrel

The synchronized gains across crude oil and precious metals in Shanghai's night session point to broad risk-on sentiment or a weakening yuan, rather than oil-specific fundamentals. For energy traders, the move suggests macro drivers are currently overriding supply-demand signals in the Chinese futures complex. The key question is whether this cross-asset strength persists into the next session, which would indicate a sustained shift in investor positioning, or if it's a short-lived repricing.
