Oil Prices Decline, And Brent Crude Oil Reaches $85 Per Barrel

Economy | 12/10/2023  Baghdad - Mawazine News   Today, Thursday (October 12, 2023), oil prices continued to decline for the third session, affected by a larger-than-expected increase in crude and gasoline inventories in the United States and a decline in concerns about supplies.

By 0138 GMT, Brent crude futures fell 41 cents, equivalent to 0.48 percent, to $85.41 per barrel. While US West Texas Intermediate crude fell 49 cents, or 0.59 percent, to $83 per barrel.

Both benchmarks gave up most of their gains at the beginning of the week.

US crude oil inventories increased by about 12.9 million barrels, according to market sources, citing American Petroleum Institute figures on Wednesday.

This is much higher than the increase of 500,000 barrels that analysts expected in a Reuters poll.

The data showed that gasoline stocks also rose by 3.6 million barrels, which is completely contrary to the decline of 800,000 barrels that analysts expected, as fears of a slowdown in demand for fuel in the United States continue.

Markets are awaiting more data on inventories from the US Energy Information Administration, scheduled to be released later on Thursday at 1430 GMT.

Points to Ponder from The Seat of the Soul By Gary Zukav:

You create your  reality with your intentions 

An intention is a quality of consciousness that you bring to an action

At each moment you choose the intentions that will shape your experiences and those things upon which you will focus your attention -- If you choose unconsciously, you evolve unconsciously -- If you choose consciously, you evolve consciously 

Every action, thought, and feeling is motivated by an intention -- and that intention is a cause that exists as one with an effect -- If  we participate in the cause - it is not possible for us not to participate in the effect -- In this most profound way - we are held responsible for our every action , thought, and feeling, which is to say, for our every intention

From the perception of the five sensory human, intentions have no effects, the effects of actions are physical, and not all actions affect us or others -- From the perception of the multi sensory human -- the intention behind an action determines its effects, every intention affects both us and others -- and the  effects of intentions extend far beyond the physical  world

Feel your intentions in your heart -- Feel not what your mind tells you, but what your heart tells you
