WTI ‘Off The Lows’ After Across-The-Board Inventory Draws, Diesel Stocks Lowest In 20 Years
Oil prices are dumping this morning, after overnight gains following API’s reported big crude draw as soft US economic data and concerns about rising supplies eroded the risk-on sentiment from a court ruling that blocked a swath of the Trump admin’s tariffs.
Crude had earlier rallied as much as 2% after a trade court blocked a vast range of President Donald Trump’s trade levies.
“The path to sustainably higher prices remains extremely narrow,” with the market likely to struggle to absorb additional barrels from OPEC+ over the coming months, said Daniel Ghali, a commodity strategist at TD Securities.
In the near term, algorithmic selling activity will weigh on prices into the weekend meeting, he added.
Will the official data confirm API’s bid draw and rejuvenate the rebound?

Oil has trended lower since mid-January on concerns about the fallout from Trump’s tariff war, with the revival of idled production by OPEC+ adding to headwinds.
The trade measures have rattled global markets, raising concerns over economic growth and demand for commodities.
Elsewhere, Libya’s eastern government said it may shut down oil production and exports in protest after a militia stormed the state oil company’s headquarters. The move highlights the persistent threat to output in the OPEC+ producer.
Wildfires near major Alberta oil sand sites also threaten more than 200,000 barrels a day of Canadian production.
