U.S. Crude Oil Stocks Unexpectedly Drop
U.S. crude stockpiles unexpectedly dropped in the week ended July 24, according to data released Wednesday by the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
Crude-oil stockpiles fell by 4.2 million barrels to 459.7 million barrels, the EIA said, though it added that the total remains near a decades-high for this time of year. Analysts surveyed by The Wall Street Journal had predicted no change on the week.
Oil stored at Cushing, Okla., the delivery point for U.S. benchmark oil futures, fell 212,000 barrels to 57.7 million barrels.
