API Weekly Data Shows A "Surprise" Build In US Crude Oil -- February 26, 2019

WTI: recovers. I guess everyone has already forgotten President Trump's tweet of less than 24 hours ago. No, just joking -- it was the weekly API data.

API weekly data: link here. "Surprise" crude oil draw sends oil prices higher. "Surprised" again. I'm shocked. Shocked. Here are the numbers:
  • consensus: a build of 2.82 million bbls
  • actual: in fact, a draw of 4.2 million bbls
Folks, that's a swing of 7.02 million bbls. That's like the golfer leading the tournament playing 3 over and #2 playing 4 under for the day -- a swing of seven strokes. Not trivial. We'll see what the EIA data tomorrow shows.
