Goldman Sachs to lay off hundreds. The bank plans to reinstate annual employee culls, which it had suspended during the pandemic, and may start cutting jobs as soon as next week. Typically, Goldman targets between 1% and 5% of its workforce for layoffs each year, and this round is expected to be at the lower end of the spectrum (current headcount: 47,000). The expected layoffs come after Goldman’s profits fell by nearly half in the second quarter compared to the year before as deal-making slowed.

HOUSTON (Reuters) -U.S. emergency crude oil stocks fell 8.4 million barrels last week to 434.1 million barrels, their lowest since October 1984, according to U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) data released on Monday.
The release from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) in the week ended Sept. 9 was the steepest draw since May. It comprised of about 6.3 million barrels of sweet crude and around 2 million barrels of sour crude.
President Joe Biden in March set a plan to release 1 million barrels per day over six months from the SPR to tackle high U.S. fuel prices, which have contributed to soaring inflation.
