Night futures open: fuel oil down over 6%, SC crude near 5% lower
AI take
The breadth of the energy complex selloff, from crude through refined products to petrochemicals, points to a single macro driver rather than product-specific weakness, which makes the divergence in Shanghai gold the more telling signal: capital appears to be rotating toward haven exposure while industrial demand proxies de-rate together. This matters most for fuel oil and petrochemical margins, where the moves are largest. Whether gold's bid persists if the energy rout deepens is the open question.
