Crude Prices Slip as Dollar Strength Sparks Long Liquidation
July WTI crude oil (CLN25) Tuesday closed down -0.31 (-0.47%), and July RBOB gasoline (RBN25) closed down -0.0072 (-0.34%). Crude oil and gasoline prices on Tuesday gave up an early advance and settled lower. Dollar strength (DXY00) on Tuesday sparked long liquidation pressures in crude oil, causing prices to retreat. Crude oil and gasoline initially moved higher Tuesday, with crude posting a 2-1/4 month high and gasoline posting a 2-week high. Signs of progress in US-China trade talks supported crude oil prices. Also, Tuesday's rally in the S&P 500 to a 3-1/2 month high shows confidence in the economic outlook that is supportive of energy demand and crude prices. The possibility of reduced trade tensions between the US and China is positive for economic growth and energy demand. US Commerce Secretary Lutnick said Tuesday that Monday's initial trade talks with China have been "fruitful." The trade negotiations continued Tuesday in London. Reduced oil production in Canada is bullish for crude prices, as wildfires in Alberta, Canada, have shut down nearly 350,000 barrels per day (bpd) of crude production, or approximately 7% of Canada's total output. The World Bank on Tuesday cut its 2025 global GDP forecast to +2.3% from a +2.7% estimate in January, which was negative for energy demand and crude prices. Crude prices were undercut last Wednesday after Bloomberg reported that Saudi Arabia is open to additional crude production hikes in a bid to increase its market share. The report stated that Saudi Arabia wants OPEC+ to increase crude output by 411,000 bpd in August and potentially in September to capitalize on peak summer demand. Signs of a global oil supply glut are weighing on crude prices, as crude oil inventories have risen by 170 million barrels over the past 100 days, according to Kayrros, which monitors inventories. An increase in crude oil held worldwide on tankers is bearish for oil prices. Vortexa reported Monday that crude oil stored on tankers that have been stationary for at least seven days rose by +9.1% w/w to 81.83 million bbl in the week ended June 6. Concern about a global oil glut is negative for crude prices. On May 31, OPEC+ agreed to a 411,000 bpd crude production hike for July after raising output by the same amount for June. Saudi Arabia has signaled that additional similar-sized increases in crude output could follow, which is viewed as a strategy to reduce oil prices and punish overproducing OPEC+ members, such as Kazakhstan and Iraq. OPEC+ is boosting output to reverse the 2-year-long production cut, gradually restoring a total of 2.2 million bpd of production. OPEC+ had previously planned to restore production between January and late 2025, but now that production cut won't be fully restored until September 2026. OPEC May crude production rose +200,000 bpd to 27.54 million bpd. Doubts about a nuclear deal between Iran and the US supported crude oil prices. Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei recently said that he doesn't think negotiations with the US will succeed, and he urged the Trump administration to stop "talking nonsense." President Trump recently said Iran will face "something bad" if it doesn't quickly accept a US proposal over its nuclear program. The consensus is that Wednesday's weekly EIA crude inventories will fall by -2.6 million, and gasoline supplies will climb by +750,000 bbl. Last Wednesday's EIA report showed that (1) US crude oil inventories as of May 30 were -7.0% below the seasonal 5-year average, (2) gasoline inventories were -1.6% below the seasonal 5-year average, and (3) distillate inventories were -17.2% below the 5-year seasonal average. US crude oil production in the week ending May 30 rose +0.1% w/w at 13.408 million bpd, modestly below the record high of 13.631 million bpd from the week of December 6. Baker Hughes reported last Friday that active US oil rigs in the week ending June 6 fell by -9 to a 3-1/2 year low of 442 rigs. The number of US oil rigs has fallen over the past two years from the 5-year high of 627 rigs posted in December 2022.

Trump signs measure blocking California's ban on new sales of gas-powered cars
President Donald Trump speaks during an event to sign a bill blocking California's rule banning the sale of new gas-powered cars by 2035 in the East Room of the White House, Thursday, June 12, 2025, in Washington. (AP Photo/Evan Vucci) WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump signed a resolution on Thursday that blocks California's first-in-the-nation rule banning the sale of new gas-powered cars by 2035. The state quickly quickly announced it will challenge the move in court, with California's attorney general holding a news conference to discuss the planned lawsuit before Trump's signing ceremony ended at the White House. The resolution was approved by Congress last month and aims to quash the country's most aggressive attempt to phase out gas-powered cars. Trump also signed measures to overturn state policies curbing tailpipe emissions in certain vehicles and smog-forming nitrogen oxide pollution from trucks. Trump called California's regulations 'crazy' at a White House ceremony where he signed the resolutions. 'It's been a disaster for this country,' he said. It comes as the Republican president is mired in a clash with California's Democratic governor, Gavin Newsom, over Trump's move to deploy troops to Los Angeles in response to immigration protests. It's the latest in an ongoing battle between the Trump administration and heavily Democratic California over issues including tariffs, the rights of LGBTQ+ youth and funding for electric vehicle chargers. The state is already involved in more than two-dozen lawsuits challenging Trump administration actions, and the state's Democratic Attorney General Rob Bonta announced the latest one at a news conference in California. 'The federal government's actions are not only unlawful; they're irrational and wildly partisan,' Bonta said. 'They come at the direct expense of the health and the well-being of our people.' The three resolutions Trump signed will block California's rule phasing out gas-powered cars and end the sale of new ones by 2035. They will also kill rules that phase out the sale of medium- and heavy-duty diesel vehicles and cut tailpipe emissions from trucks. In his remarks at the White House, Trump expressed doubts about the performance and reliability of electric vehicles, though he had some notably positive comments about the company owned by Elon Musk, despite their fractured relationship. 'I like Tesla,' Trump said. In remarks that often meandered away from the subject at hand, Trump used the East Room ceremony to also muse on windmills, which he claimed 'are killing our country,' the prospect of getting electrocuted by an electric-powered boat if it sank and whether he'd risk a shark attack by jumping as the boat went down. 'I'll take electrocution every single day,' the president said. When it comes to cars, Trump said he likes combustion engines but for those that prefer otherwise, 'If you want to buy electric, you can buy electric.' 'What this does is it gives us freedom,' said Bill Kent, the owner of Kent Kwik convenience stores. Kent, speaking at the White House, said that the California rules would have forced him to install 'infrastructure that frankly, is extremely expensive and doesn't give you any return.' The Alliance for Automotive Innovation, which represents major car makers, applauded Trump's action. 'Everyone agreed these EV sales mandates were never achievable and wildly unrealistic,' John Bozzella, the group's president and CEO, said in a statement. Newsom, who is considered a likely 2028 Democratic presidential candidate, and California officials contend that what the federal government is doing is illegal and said the state plans to sue. Newsom said Trump's action was a continuation of his 'all-out assault' on California. 'And this time he's destroying our clean air and America's global competitiveness in the process,' Newsom said in a statement. 'We are suing to stop this latest illegal action by a President who is a wholly-owned subsidiary of big polluters.' The signings come as Trump has pledged to revive American auto manufacturing and boost oil and gas drilling. The move follows other steps the Trump administration has taken to roll back rules that aim to protect air and water and reduce emissions that cause climate change. The Environmental Protection Agency on Wednesday proposed repealing rules that limit greenhouse gas emissions from power plants fueled by coal and natural gas. Dan Becker with the Center for Biological Diversity, said the signing of the resolutions was 'Trump's latest betrayal of democracy.' 'Signing this bill is a flagrant abuse of the law to reward Big Oil and Big Auto corporations at the expense of everyday people's health and their wallets,' Becker said in a statement. California, which has some of the nation's worst air pollution, has been able to seek waivers for decades from the EPA, allowing it to adopt stricter emissions standards than the federal government. In his first term, Trump revoked California's ability to enforce its standards, but Democratic President Joe Biden reinstated it in 2022. Trump has not yet sought to revoke it again. Republicans have long criticized those waivers and earlier this year opted to use the Congressional Review Act, a law aimed at improving congressional oversight of actions by federal agencies, to try to block the rules. That's despite a finding from the U.S. Government Accountability Office, a nonpartisan congressional watchdog, that California's standards cannot legally be blocked using the Congressional Review Act. The Senate parliamentarian agreed with that finding. California, which makes up roughly 11% of the U.S. car market, has significant power to sway trends in the auto industry. About a dozen states signed on to adopt California's rule phasing out the sale of new gas-powered cars. ___ Michelle L. Price, Sophie Austin And Seung Min Kim, The Associated Press

More than 125K hedge trimmers recalled in Canada, U.S. over laceration hazard
Hundreds of thousands of Ryobi-branded cordless hedge trimmers sold in Canada and the U.S. have been recalled due to laceration hazards, prompting warnings from health and consumer agencies in both countries. Health Canada issued a joint recall with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (US CPSC) and Techtronic Industries (TTI) Outdoor Power Equipment Inc. on Thursday for select Ryobi 24-inch, 40V cordless hedge trimmers. 'The hedge trimmer blade can unexpectedly activate after pressing just the safety or trigger control individually rather than engaging the safety and trigger controls simultaneously, posing a potential laceration hazard,' the alert said. According to Health Canada, as of May 27, TTI Outdoor Power Equipment has received one incident report and one finger laceration report in Canda. Approximately 15,000 units were sold in Canada between March 2021 to January 2025. The affected trimmers only have model numbers RY40620VNM, RY40602VNM and RY40602BTLVNM and serial numbers within ranges LT21091D180001 to LT22365D060025 and RG23125N250001 to RG24252D101110. Consumers can find the model and serial information on the product's data plate located on the trimmer's bottom. Health Canada urges consumers to 'immediately stop using' the affected products and visit the company's website to see if their trimmer is in the recall. Consumers can receive a free replacement trimmer. Larger recall in the U.S. The recall is more significant in the U.S., where the CPSC reported the same day that more than 110,000 units are affected. According to the CPSC, the company received 27 reports of the blade activating after pressing just one of the controls including 16 injury reports that resulted in minor and some severe lacerations.
