OIL: Oil staged a recovery yesterday amid reports that President Trump may try
to broker a deal between Saudi Arabia and Russia to reduce production by 10% and
promise that the US shale industry would pare back production at the same time.
Trump is reported as saying that he would take action and act the "appropriate
time". However, other reports have suggested that President Putin is unwilling
to back down in the face of what he sees as Saudi "blackmail".
- Brent and WTI both continue to move higher this morning. Brent futures hit a
low of $24.52/bbl on Wednesday but at writing trade almost $5 higher at $30.44.
The recovery in WTI has been even more pronounced. We hit a low of $20.06/bbl on
Wednesday and now trade more than $7 higher at $27.20.
