After dropping from $87.67 on the 12th to Monday’s low of $80.70, West Texas Intermediate crude quickly gave back nearly seven points intraday in seven sessions. Earlier, it bottomed at $67.71 last December.
Selling stopped at the 50-day, with the crude hugging the average ($81.49) for four sessions, ending the week up two percent to $83.85/barrel. With this, oil bulls also defended breakout retest at $81-$82. WTI went back and forth between $71-$72 and $81-$82 for 19 months before pushing through the upper end a month ago.
The weekly remains overbought, but the ball remains with the bulls so long as they defend $81-$82.
In the meantime, US crude production in the week to April 19th was unchanged for seven consecutive weeks at 13.1 million barrels per day; nine weeks ago, output was at a record 13.3 mb/d. Crude imports increased 36,000 b/d to 6.5 mb/d. As did distillate inventory, which rose 1.6 million barrels to 116.6 million barrels. Stocks of crude and gasoline, however, dropped 6.4 million barrels and 634,000 barrels respectively to 453.6 million barrels and 226.7 million barrels. Refinery utilization rose four-tenths of a percentage point to 88.5 percent.
