Nymex March crude rose 72￠ to close at $75.26/bbl.

摘要

Crude oil advanced as the US stock market rebounded from the largest three-session decline since March once it became clear that Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is a shoo-in to be reconfirmed. Oil also found support after sellers failed to break prices below major technical support at about $74 a barrel. Meanwhile, according to a report by Morgan Stanley, oil prices will rise to $95 a barrel by the end of the year as demand improves. The report said that declining oil supplies and the rebounding economy will likely send oil prices climbing to average $100 a barrel in 2011.
