Morgan Stanley expects international oil prices to hit $100 per barrel by the third quarter this year, the firm’s chief commodity strategist Martijn Rats told CNBC.
Rats said that while surging inflation is often a bad omen for stocks, it has historically been great for commodities.
“Commodities provide good inflation protection. They’ve done so once again over the last 12 to 18 months,” he added.
