Market drivers

The Energy Information Administration reported Wednesday that domestic commercial-crude inventories rose by 4.2 million to 447.3 million barrels for the week ending Feb. 23. The EIA has now reported gains in crude supply for five weeks in a row.

The report also showed weekly supply declines of 2.8 million barrels for gasoline and 500,000 barrels for distillates.

The data also showed a continued rebound in gasoline supplied, a key measure of implied consumer demand, noted analysts at Sevens Report Research. It hit its second highest level since mid-December at just shy of 8.5 million barrels a day.

“A better consumer demand outlook is supportive of prices near term. Domestic production, meanwhile, has been holding steady at a record
13.3 million barrels/day since late January. Oil production not rising is not bearish and is easing a previous headwind on the market, setting futures up for more upside,” they wrote.
