1512 ET – Oil futures pull up from intraday lows after sinking on the OPEC+ decision to start raising output in April and on market reactions to the U.S. tariffs imposed on Mexico and Canada, triggering a possible trade war that could curb global growth and demand. The rebound “suggests that the selloff in WTI to below $67 was overcooked,” Ritterbusch says in a note. “The mid-session advance appeared more related to a lack of selling than to aggressive buying.” WTI settles down 0.2% at $68.26 a barrel and Brent falls 0.8% to $71.04.
