Oil near a Month High

Sunday, October 11, 2009

Oil futures rose, trading near the highest in a month, as stronger equities markets and declining U.S. gasoline supplies increased speculation that fuel demand may improve. Yesterday, the contract rose 2.54 dollars a barrel, or 6.4%, to 42.50 a barrel, the highest settlement since January 26.

Word on the Trading Desks:
