Oil Holds Gains with Focus on US Stockpiles
Thursday, 26 December 2024 11:00 WIB | OIL |brent oilOil,

Oil rose as stimulus measures in China may help to bolster demand, and a US industry report flagged another drop in stockpiles.

Brent climbed toward $74 a barrel after a 1.3% gain on Tuesday, with West Texas Intermediate above $70.

In a bid to bolster growth, China is giving local officials more leeway in how they invest proceeds of government bonds, while keeping interest rates steady for now.

Policymakers pledged a "moderately loose" monetary stance in the top crude importer earlier this month.
