WTI crude futures erased early gains to fall towards $66 a barrel on Friday, after rising as much as 2% to above $68 tracking a sentiment of risk-off that took hold in markets. Early, a more bullish oil market was sustained by OPEC+ remarks, saying that are ready to quickly adjust output plans if demand suffered from measures to contain the Omicron variant. In the previous session, OPEC+ surprised markets when it stuck to plans to add 400,000 bpd supply in January, seen by analysts as a move meant to appease Washington. US deputy energy secretary David Turk previously said President Biden’s administration could adjust the timing of its planned release of strategic crude oil stockpiles if global energy prices drop substantially. Meanwhile, the producers have since calmed markets, saying they would meet again before their next scheduled meeting on Jan. 4, if needed, to review supply additions in light of virus-related developments. WTI crude is on track for its sixth weekly decline.





Oil settles down $10/bbl in largest daily drop since April 2020


Go Joe Brandon!

Gas has already gone down 10 cents a gallon where I live in the past week.
 
I thought presidents couldn't affect oil and gas prices???
Yes, that's true, and I have said so when the pseudocons were blaming Biden for the rise in gas prices.

But what's good for the goose is good for the gander. I know the pseudocons wont have the integrity to give credit to Biden when prices go down. So I am doing it for them.
