This is the private survey ahead of official oil stock data (U.S. Department of Energy's Energy Information Administration's (EIA) Crude Oil Inventories)due from the US on Wednesday morning.
Oil had a bit of a pop in the minutes leading up to this private data release. Where is that 'eyebrows raised' emoticon? But maybe it was just the headlines of a US Navy ship firing warning shots at an Iranian patrol boat in the Persian Gulf?
Thanks to the ZeroHedgehogs for the tweet!
ps. as posted earlier - The Reuters poll had the consensus expectation for crude stocks to have fallen 3 million barrels in the latest week . As you can see, the draw is much bigger, more than 10 million barrels.
