  The mass shooter who killed at least 18 people in Maine remains at large. Authorities are hunting for 40-year-old firearms instructor Robert Card, who went on a deadly shooting rampage at a bowling alley and bar in Lewiston on Wednesday. The Coast Guard was searching the Kennebec River after the suspect, who owns a 15-foot motorboat, abandoned his car at a boat launch 10 miles from the crime scenes. Multiple Maine communities remain on lockdown, with several schools closed and residents urged not to leave their homes. The shooting prompted President Biden to renew his calls for Congress to pass an assault weapons ban and other gun control measures.

• Energy Commentary for Thursday

  Energy stocks opened the session in the red, with a confluence of headwinds weighing, including lower broader equity futures and weaker oil prices.  Oil prices are trading around two-week lows.  Earnings are continuing to stream in across the energy sector.

  
  

  Oil prices fell on Thursday after a rise in U.S. crude stockpiles and a climb in the dollar index, giving up some ground gained a day earlier when prices jumped on fears of a broader conflict in the Middle East.  "The movements of oil markets are primarily involved with the Hamas-Israel war," said Tina Teng, markets analyst at CMC.

  
  

  Natural gas futures are higher by 2 cents in light trading as prices narrow around the $3 level.  Weekly inventory data is expected to show a build of 83 Bcf.
