NYMEX crude oil prices recover in Asia after HSBC China PMI



                   Crude oil prices recovered in Asia Thursday after stronger manufacturing in key importer China in May.
China's HSBC May flash manufacturing PMI rose to 49.7, well above expectations of matching the April reading of 48.1.
On the New York Mercantile Exchange, West Texas Intermediate crude oil for delivery in July traded at $104.06 a barrel, bearly flat, after hitting an overnight session low of $102.58 a barrel and a high of $104.27 a barrel.
Brent crude futures on the ICE Futures Europe exchange rose 86 cents to $110.55 a barrel on Wednesday.
Overnight, crude got a bounce higher after the U.S. Energy Information Administration said in its weekly report that U.S. crude oil inventories fell by 7.2 million barrels in the week ending May 16, far surpassing expectations for a build of 750,000 barrels.
Total U.S. crude oil inventories stood at 391.3 million barrels as of last week.
The report also showed that total motor gasoline inventories increased by 1.0 million barrels, compared to forecasts for a gain of 0.1 million barrels, while distillate stockpiles rose by 3.4 million barrels, compared to expectations for a drop of 0.4 million barrels.
Ongoing tensions between Russia and Ukraine remained in focus, amid concerns over a disruption to supplies from the region.
Ukraine will hold presidential elections on Sunday, and concerns persist that Russia will meddle in the voting and escalate the crisis. U.S. and European officials have already warned that Russia would face additional sanctions if Moscow disrupts the upcoming elections, including sanctions targeting the Russian economy.
Russia produced 10.4 million barrels of oil per day in 2012 and exported 7.4 million, making it the world’s second largest oil exporter after Saudi Arabia.
Meanwhile, renewed concerns over Libya's oil output further supported prices, following some of the worst violence the country has seen since the 2011 war against Muammar Qaddafi.
Libya, an OPEC member, is home to Africa’s largest oil reserves, but production there has faltered in the three years following the topple of former leader Qaddafi due to political instability and attacks on oil assets. - investing.com

  7. Hello Traders,
    Now again the good days has come for NIFTY. Be ready to see NIFTY at the level of 8100 & 8400 in July month. On 8th July the rail budget & on 10th July the union budget will be on the floor. We are expecting govt will give some positive base for the market especially for the PSU. We can see a sharp move in all oil stocks also specially in BPCL & ONGC. We suggest all the traders to be in buy side of the NIFTY & all NIFTY stocks on every dip. Now for trading you must have a positional outlook not an intraday one. Every Dip mustCOMMODITY, STOCK TIPS be considered as a buying opportunity. As next week we can expect a very tight range in the initial two days & high volatility on the budget dates.
