Just a few records & benchmarks hit this week:
Oil inventories up the most since October 2016; refinery utilization lowest since Hurricane Harvey; gasoline production lowest in 22 years; gasoline demand lowest since February 1992, and the biggest one week demand drop ever ...
Oh, and that crude oil in storage now near the five-year average for this time of year; it's also about 30% above the prior 5 year average (ie, 2010 to 2014)...we've now had five fat years..
