Angel Commodities' report on Crude Oil

WTI oil prices increase 1.26 percent on Tuesday to close at $54.2 per barrel after China signalled progress in trade talks with the United States and OPEC and its allies mulled deeper production cuts, but gains were capped by forecasts of a build up in US crude stock piles. Although President Donald Trump has said he would like to sign a deal when he meets his Chinese counterpart at November's APEC summit, the U.S. commerce secretary said an initial trade deal does not need to be finalized next month. On the MCX, oil prices increased by 1.45 percent to close at Rs.3852 per barrel.
