Brent crude has moved above $100 a barrel, extending strength in the oil market, according to CNBC Markets. The outlet highlights Goldman Sachs’ view that the next area of focus for prices could be around $120.

CNBC Markets points to Goldman’s warnings on the outlook for oil prices, framing the move higher as part of a broader market shift rather than a one-off spike.

The report also notes the concept of so called tank bottoms, a term used in market commentary to describe trough conditions for inventories or storage-related dynamics, and it ties the broader analysis to the next phase for energy pricing.

CNBC Markets adds that the bank’s discussion includes a natural gas-related angle as part of its wider energy complex view.
