Active Rigs Drop By Four (4); WTI Surges; Nine New Permits -- October 1, 2018

WTI: I don't know about the general reader but when I see $75.50 sitting in that box below -- it is more than just a little remarkable. I've always said $55-WTI (2016 dollars) is the sweet spot -- "okay" for everyone. At $65, with an overweight in oil companies, one could be happy, but wow, $75.50! In an hour or so we will see futures for tomorrow's trading.
