U.S. Demand Boosts Oil Prices
Oil prices bounced to the highest close this month as strong U.S. demand ate into crude and fuel inventories.
West Texas Intermediate futures for July rose 0.4% to $66.64 a barrel at the New York Mercantile Exchange on Wednesday, closing at the highest point since May 31. August-dated Brent crude, the global oil benchmark, rose 1.1% to $76.74 a barrel.
The Energy Information Administration said on Wednesday morning that crude oil inventories fell by 4.1 million barrels to 432.4 million barrels, a larger reduction than expected. Analysts and traders surveyed by The Wall Street Journal had forecast a drop of 1.6 million. Gasoline and distillate stocks also fell, surprising traders who had expected increases.
