Crude Oil Rises After U.S. Consumer Sentiment, Industrial Output Increase
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-...fter-u-s-industrial-production-increases.html
Oil rose for a third day in New York as
- better-than-forecast U.S. consumer confidence and
- industrial data bolstered optimism in the economy of the worldâs biggest crude-consuming country.
Futures increased 1.4 percent after the Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan April preliminary index of consumer sentiment advanced to 69.6 from 67.5 the prior month.
The Federal Reserve said U.S. production at factories rose 0.8 percent in March, the fifth straight gain.
âTodayâs numbers show that the U.S. economy is rebounding strongly,â said Jason Schenker, president of Prestige Economics, an energy advisory firm in Austin, Texas. âThe global economic recovery is still on track despite high oil prices.â
demand growth

<b>âThe IEA, EIA and OPEC have all known about high prices and yet they didnât make substantial changes to their oil-demand outlooks,â Sieminski said. âIt doesnât look like higher prices are having a major impact.â</b>

Elections in Nigeria this month may lead to decreased output from Africaâs top crude-producing country. Attacks by armed groups in the Niger delta region, home to Nigeriaâs oil and gas industry, cut more than 28 percent of the countryâs oil output between 2006 and 2009, according to data compiled by Bloomberg News.
âThe situation in Nigeria could get a lot worse after the elections,â said Michael Lynch, president of Strategic Energy & Economic Research in Winchester, Massachusetts. âThere could be an upsurge in rebel attacks against the oil industry.â
<b>âBrent should trade between $120 and $125 until the geopolitical situation gets better, and that could be a long time,â </b>said Adam Sieminski, chief energy economist at Deutsche Bank AG in Washington.
