U.S. stock-market futures advanced slightly Sunday, as investors await a potentially tumultuous week.
Dow Jones Industrial Average futures rose about 40 points, or 0.1%, late Sunday. S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq-100 futures also inched higher. The price of gold slipped, while bitcoin hovered above the $118,000 level. Crude oil futures declined.
The stock market’s rebound may be tested this week by important inflation data, with data from the consumer-price index coming Tuesday and data from the producer-price index due Thursday. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump will host Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska on Friday to discuss a potential cease-fire agreement in Ukraine.
Hotter inflation numbers could give investors pause, and derail the months-long market rally, reviving worries of stagflation, where both inflation and unemployment rise.
U.S. energy firms this week cut the number of oil and natural gas rigs operating for a third week in a row, energy services firm Baker Hughes (BKR.O) said in its closely followed report on Friday.
The total oil and gas rig count, an early indicator of future output, fell by one to 539 in the week to August 8th.
Baker Hughes said oil rigs rose by one to 411 this week, while gas rigs fell by one to 123, and miscellaneous rigs fell by one to five.
Oklahoma was +2 rigs, now at 43 rigs running. In Texas, the biggest oil and gas-producing state, the rig count fell by two to 243, the lowest since October 2021.
In the Permian Basin in West Texas and eastern New Mexico, the biggest U.S. oil-producing shale formation, the rig count fell by three to 256, the lowest since September 2021.
In the Eagle Ford shale in South Texas, the rig count fell by one to 38, the lowest since October 2021.
(Reuters) - Oil largely held steady on Friday as markets awaited a meeting in coming days between Russian president Vladimir Putin and his U.S. counterpart Donald Trump, but prices marked their steepest weekly losses since late June on a tariff-hit economic outlook.
Brent crude futures settled 16 cents higher at $66.59 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures were unchanged at $63.88.
For the week, Brent fell 4.4% while WTI finished 5.1% lower than last Friday's close.
U.S. crude had fallen over 1% after reports that Washington and Moscow were aiming to reach a deal to halt the war in Ukraine that would lock in Russia's occupation of territory seized during its military invasion, Bloomberg News reported on Friday.
U.S. and Russian officials are working towards an agreement on territories for a planned summit meeting between Trump and Putin as early as next week, the report said, citing people familiar with the matter.
The potential meeting raises expectations of a diplomatic end to the war in Ukraine, which could lead to eased sanctions on Russia, and comes as trade tensions have been on the rise between Trump and buyers of Russian oil.
