Oil prices rebounded on Wednesday, rising more than 2% after data showed U.S. crude and gasoline inventories fell unexpectedly last week and on reports that OPEC+ may delay a planned oil output increase.
After falling more than 6% earlier in the week on the reduced risk of wider Middle East war, Brent crude futures settled up $1.43, or 2.01%, at $72.55 a barrel. U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude rose $1.4, or 2.08%, to $68.61.
U.S. gasoline stockpiles fell unexpectedly last week to a two-year low on strengthened demand, the Energy Information Administration said, while crude inventories also posted a surprise drawdown as imports slipped.
U.S. imports of crude oil from Saudi Arabia fell to their lowest point last week since January 2021, at just 13,000 bpd, down from 150,000 bpd the previous week. Crude imports from Canada, Iraq, Colombia, Brazil all slipped on the week, the EIA said.
Reuters reported that OPEC+, which groups the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies such as Russia, could delay a planned oil production increase in December by a month or more because of concerns over soft oil demand and rising supply.
All three major stock indexes ended lower on Wednesday after gains from earlier in the session vanished and some investors came away from the third-quarter GDP report with expectations for a further economic slowdown by year-end.
Based on preliminary data, the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed down by 91.51 points, or 0.2%, at 42,141.54. It had jumped by as much as 224.87 points earlier in the day.
The S&P 500 finished down by 19.25 points, or 0.3%, at 5,813.67.
The Nasdaq Composite ended down by 104.82 points, or 0.6%, at 18,607.93. It missed the level needed to reach another closing high after ending Tuesday's session at 18,712.75. Nonetheless, Wednesday's closing level was the third-highest in the Nasdaq's history.
"There has been a lot for investors to digest since yesterday’s close, including many earnings, economic data, and other macro updates. As the headlines piled up this morning, it felt like trying to drink from a firehose," said Michael Reinking, a senior market strategist for the New York Stock Exchange.
Despite Alphabet's solid earnings report on Tuesday, "the other earnings reports within the sector and more broadly were much more mixed," the strategist wrote in a note.
Brent climbed above $72 a barrel after tumbling more than 6% over the previous two sessions, and West Texas Intermediate surpassed $68. While one Israeli minister suggested that the war with Hezbollah could be over by year-end, the country’s military chief vowed to strike Iran “very hard” should the OPEC producer launch another attack.
The commodity’s gains were bolstered on Wednesday after data from the ADP Research Institute showed hiring at US companies accelerated by the most in over a year, while Reuters reported that OPEC+ nations could delay plans to revive oil production in December, citing unnamed sources. However, two OPEC+ delegates said that the group hasn't begun discussions yet.
