May WTI crude oil (CLK25) today is up +0.10 (+0.14%), and May RBOB gasoline (RBK25) is up +0.0148 (+0.65%).
Crude oil and gasoline prices are moving higher today, with crude posting a 5-week high and gasoline posting a 7-month nearest-futures high. Dollar weakness today is supportive of crude prices. Crude also has carryover support from Monday when President Trump threatened to curtail crude exports from Russia, the world's third-largest oil producer. Today's weaker-than-expected US economic news limited gains in crude along with concern about economic damage from US tariffs.
