The barrel price of oil was up nearly $8 at one time today only to finish the day 20 cents lower than yesterday. Trump’s calm approach seems to have calmed the markets.
I really dont understand what you are trying to communicate with that sentence. Oil is up big from before the incident. Yes it had spiked higher likely due to margin calls on the shorts. It came off the highs BUT Cl has screwed over a bunch of accounts who were short .
It is nowhere near where it was at the close on Friday
Yeah well, gasoline has jumped about thirty cents per gallon today in my neck of the woods
