OIL: Trump Tariff Plan Could Threaten US Refiners: DNB
OIL
President-elect Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports would hurt US refiners if crude oil were included, DNB market analysts said, cited by Dow Jones.
- Mexico and Canada are the top sources of US crude imports. The US imports a combined 5.2m b/d of crude and products from those two countries.
- “A 25% tariff hike would be very painful for landlocked U.S. refineries that are dependent on pipeline imports of Canadian crude," DNB Markets' Helge Andre Martinsen and Tobias Ingebrigtsen said in a note.
