Data on Friday showed U.S. employers created jobs in March at the fastest rate in three years. Non-farm payrolls rose 162,000, only the third increase since the U.S. economy fell into recession in late 2007 and the largest since March 2007.
U.S. manufacturing is also expanding at its fastest pace for more than five years, while Chinese manufacturing is picking up and Japanese business sentiment is also improving.
U.S. crude oil for May delivery rose $1.02 per barrel to a high of $85.89 in early Asian trade before slipping back to around $85.32, up 45 cents, by 1000 GMT. The market was closed for a three-day weekend including the Good Friday holiday.
U.S. crude has risen almost 2 percent in the first five days of the quarter, versus a rise of 5.5 percent through the whole of the first three months of the year.
Brent crude rose 29 cents to $84.30.
The strong payrolls, positive manufacturing data and signs of rising fuel demand are all likely to support oil prices and cement crude in a new, higher range trading, analysts say.
"Our take on crude oil prices in the short-term is that we likely will push higher from here," said senior commodities analyst Edward Meir at brokers MF Global.

Don’t worry, because 0bama is president, $3 a gallon gas or more is good for the US.
I thought the Dems said when they took office, oil and gas prices would go down?
That’s was one part of their campaign. The other ignored part was they wanted oil prices to go up but just not as quick as it did under Bush.
That beetle like the MSM sure has a load of crap.
(Now the MSM claims oil price increase is good)
(Now the MSM claims you being out of work is good)
If this happened under BUSH, it would be the LEAD STORY!!!
More of “Americans paying their ‘fair share.’”
Anything but the truth -- Depends on what lies you want to tell, doesn't it.
It was also front page, top-of-the-fold two years ago. For weeks and weeks.
Can somebody assemble some parallel news clips from then and now?
high oil prices hurt the poorer groups of people but the dems don’t care because all their voters live in cities
It would at best reflect a lift in global demand. It might also be cartel action in anticipation of future losses in the face of cap and tax.
“This game the MSM and the Rats are playing”
Yeah but it is working and they know it. The uninformed leeches in our society will continue to soak it in and vote for these b@$$turds over and over. Their numbers are increasing daily as the leftists continue to hand out freebies to these slackers.
Most people don’t remember that gem. Also remember zero saying he wants electric rates to skyrocket?

It would be great for America, if we could actually produce any of it here, from new fields in new, novel ways...OOPS, we can’t do that anymore...never mind.
