WTI Crude Settles 0.6% Higher at $86.53 a Barrel

The move is modest, but the framing matters: a rebound off the lowest close since early September, with the rising 100-day average now sitting below price as a support reference. That combination suggests the pullback was absorbed rather than extended, though a single session does little to confirm a trend. The energy complex is the relevant read-through for tokenized commodity and RWA products tracking crude and gas benchmarks. Whether the front month holds above that moving average, and whether the rest of the complex follows, is the open question.
