Oil retailer, aviation stocks spike 4-6% following sharp fall in crude prices

Any fall in crude oil price is always good for oil marketing companies as well as for country like India which imports more than 80 percent of its requirement.

In the winter of 1925, a Topical Press Film cameraman made a silent record of the Company’s operations in Persia. The 35mm film, entitled ‘The Persian Oil Industry’, was 45 minutes long and shown to specialised audiences in technical institutions. Later, a 15 minute film was produced and shown in public cinemas under the title of ‘In the Land of the Shah’ and a 20 minute version bearing the same title was made for distribution by Pathescope Limited. The film, in its various forms, was seen by nearly a million people between 1926 and 1938. The approximate cost of the film was £1,600.00. Which company is being discussed here?

    Share prices of oil marketing and aviation companies rallied 4-6 percent intraday on Thursday following the sharp correction in crude oil prices in the international markets.

    Hindustan Petroleum Corporation (up 6 percent intraday), Bharat Petroleum Corporation (up 5 percent), Indian Oil Corporation (5.8 percent), Jet Airways (6 percent), SpiceJet (6.5 percent) and InterGlobe Aviation (4.3 percent) participated in the rally.

    Brent crude futures, the international benchmark for oil prices, fell nearly 7 percent in previous session on news that Libya would resume oil exports and US-China trade tensions.

    The announcement by Libya's National Oil Corp that four export terminals were being reopened, ending a standoff that had shut down most of Libya's oil output, was one of the catalysts for a correction, analysts told CNBC.

    The reopening allows the return of as much as 850,000 barrels per day of crude into international markets, while an escalating US-China trade row has raised concerns about demand.

    Today oil prices recouped some losses seen in the previous session. Brent crude rose 1.87 percent, to $74.77 after slumping 6.9 percent on Wednesday.
