US Private Energy Inventories (bbls): Crude +5.6mln (exp. +2.3mln), Distillate +0.5mln (exp. -2.6mln), Gasoline -3.3mln (exp. -0.8mln), Cushing +1.5mln.
What it means
The recent data on US private energy inventories shows a significant build in crude stocks versus expectations, which could signal oversupply concerns in the market. The larger-than-expected rise in crude, alongside unexpected builds in distillates, suggests weakening demand, while the draw in gasoline could be a slight bright spot. Overall, this likely weighs on near-term oil prices, as traders reassess supply dynamics ahead of key policy decisions.
