Energy Market Updates

Fuel markets appeared to have shrugged off what could have been a historic week, should an actual Coup attempt in Russia transpired.  The current market mood appears to be focused more on actual supply and demand factors.  Crude inventories showed a massive 9m barrel loss this week while finished gas and diesel were relatively flat.  Gasoline futures soared yesterday taking ULSD  along for the ride, although not as much. 

The EIA released its Short Term Energy Outlook today with its projections for both Crude prices and US Crude Oil production through 2016. It also projects where we will be on retail gasoline, natural gas storage, and electricity for 2015 & 2016.

EIA weekly petroleum report showed inventory gains across the board.
