• Energy Sector Commentary
  Energy stocks are set to close...

  Energy stocks are set to close out the final session of the third quarter in the green, tracking higher broader index futures and oil prices.  Rates are backing off, with the 10-year back below 4.6%, trading around 4.53%.  Sector news flow is light as quiet periods are set to commence ahead of earnings season next month.

  
  

  Oil prices rose on Friday and were headed for a gain of about 3% for the week, driven by tight U.S. supply and expectations of strong fuel demand in China. A backdrop of tight supplies in the U.S. provided further price support, with storage at Cushing, Oklahoma, the delivery point for U.S. crude futures, already at its lowest since July 2022. "Any additional decline would threaten to bring them down to a critical level, which could make further withdrawals difficult," said Commerzbank analyst Carsten Fritsch.

  
  

  Natural gas futures are lower by 3%, consolidating gains after touching 7-week highs yesterday.
