WTI Crude Settles Above $102 as Heating Oil Tops $5
AI take
The scale of the WTI move, with heating oil clearing $5 a gallon, points to a product-led squeeze rather than a broad crude re-rating — the divergence with Murban, which slipped, suggests the pressure is concentrated in US benchmarks and refined fuels. That distinction matters for anyone watching inflation or refining margins, since distillate strength feeds through to transport and heating costs. Whether the product complex keeps leading crude, or Murban's softer print proves the truer signal, is the open question.
