US Crude Oil Inventories Fall Again: How Is Crude Oil Reacting?

Crude oil inventories fall for the sixth consecutive week

In the last six consecutive weeks, crude oil inventories have shown downward movement. Crude oil’s price has shown a strong rally since February 12, 2016. On February 11, 2016, crude oil (UWTI) (BNO) touched a multiyear low of $26.11 per barrel. Global markets (VTI) (VEU) (ACWI) also recovered from their respective lows on February 11, 2016. The Federal Reserve’s dovish stance was mainly responsible for these market movements.

The fall in crude oil inventories is a welcome sign for crude oil, erasing the fear of a global supply glut. Demand for crude oil is expected to rise in the near future, further driving crude oil’s movements.
