据道琼斯10月21日消息,因美元上涨没能抵消外界对油市供应趋紧的乐观情绪的影响,原油期货周五收盘上涨,逆转稍早跌势。

油价最近的涨势是由欧佩克9月宣布拟执行减产计划带动,但本周遇到阻力,因投资者了结获利,等待更多关于供求基本面的消息。
美元走强在周五上午令油价承压。华尔街日报美元指数上涨0.3%,至88.61。

Oil Prices Rise Despite Stronger Dollar
By Sarah McFarlane and Stephanie Yang
Crude prices closed higher Friday, reversing earlier losses as a stronger U.S. dollar failed to subdue optimism over a tightening market.
U.S. crude for December settled up 22 cents, or 0.4%, at $50.85 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange, after trading as low as $50.21 earlier in the session. Brent, the global benchmark, rose 40 cents, or 0.8%, at $51.78 a barrel.
The recent oil price rally, triggered by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries announcement in September of plans to implement a production cut, has stalled this week as investors have taken profits and await more news on fundamental supply and demand.
A stronger dollar helped put pressure on oil prices Friday morning before paring gains. The Wall Street Journal Dollar Index was up 0.3% at 88.61.
