Energy segment is trading in green today. Weekly performance at a glance in chart & table.

Oil (WTI) -

  • Weaker dollar and Middle East tensions provided necessary cues to WTI bulls as they have cleared $60 area. Next target is coming around $64-65 area.

  • EIA stocks on Wednesday and NFP report on Friday remain the focus. Weaker dollar might even lead crude towards $70 level.
