Oil Hit $117 on Friday. The Real Barrel Got Cheaper. Here's Why.

Описание: Brent crude settled at $116.72 on Friday, October 23, its highest close since April, after a 6% weekly gain. Same day, physical Middle East crude cargoes were being offered cheaper. This video explains what actually moved the price this week (the Shaybah drone attack, the Aramco headquarters evacuation, reports of US-Israeli strike plans after the midterms), why the futures price and the physical price can point in opposite directions, and the three numbers I'd watch next week. Crude Logic: oil and gas, explained by someone who works in it.
