Crude Climbs on Dollar Weakness and Expectations OPEC+ Will Support Prices

December WTI crude oil (CLZ23) this morning is up +1.91 (+2.52%), and Dec RBOB gasoline (RBZ23) is up +0.0700 (+3.20%).

Crude oil and gasoline prices this morning are moderately higher.  Today's slide in the dollar index (DXY00) to a 2-1/2 month low supports gains in energy prices.  Crude prices are also climbing on concern OPEC+ may extend and even deepen its crude production cuts when the group meets this weekend.  Today's rally in the S&P 500 to a 2-1/2 month high shows confidence in the economic outlook and is positive for energy demand and crude prices.
