NEW YORK - U.S. crude prices rose on Wednesday to a four-month high above $60 a barrel after U.S. government data showed tightening domestic oil supplies, but gains were capped by concerns over global economic growth due to the ongoing U.S.-China trade war.
The more-active second-month WTI benchmark gained 94 cents, or 1.6 percent, to settle at $60.23 a barrel.Prices rose after the U.S. Energy Information Administration posted a large and unexpected drop in crude inventories due to strong export and refining demand. [EIA/S] “The report is bullish due to the large crude oil inventory drawdown, which was a function of low import levels and high export volumes,” said John Kilduff, a partner at Again Capital LLC in New York. “The across-the-board inventory declines in crude oil and refined products highlights the tightening market.”
Rating agency S&P Global raised its Brent oil price assumptions back up to $60 a barrel on Wednesday, on the back of the production cuts by OPEC and Russia.
