Did Y'all See This? API US Crude Oil Inventory --- Up Another Whopping 9 Million Bbls -- November 14, 2018

Link here.
The American Petroleum Institute reported late Wednesday that U.S. crude supplies rose by 8.8 million barrels for the week ended Nov. 9, according to sources.
The API data, which was released a day later than usual because of Monday's Veterans Day holiday, also showed gasoline supplies edged up by 188,000 barrels while distillate stockpiles fell 3.2 million barrels, sources said.
Inventory data from the Energy Information Administration will be released Thursday. Analysts polled by S&P Global Platts expect the EIA to report a climb of 2.3 million barrels in crude supplies.  
Absolutely incredible.

When I was tracking this, back in 2017, for two years, I do not recall any increase of 9 million bbls of oil. This is staggering. I quit tracking this back in March, 2018. Maybe I need to start tracking it again. My threshold: 400 million bbls.
