Key Quotes
“Brent also had a strong day too and rallied to the tune of +4.57% to
creep closer to $48/bbl. Yesterday’s surge in prices came about on the
back of the latest US crude stockpiles data from the EIA which was
reported as unexpectedly dropping by 3.4m barrels in the week ending May
6th. US crude production was also reported as falling while the fallout
from the rebel violence in Nigeria continues with reports suggesting
that at least a fifth of Nigerian oil production has so far been shut
down.”
