Adjustment factor up again:
Where did the surge in oil inventories come from? It didn't. It was all in some activist bureaucrat's excel spreadsheet: the DOE's weekly adjustment factor soared from 0 to 1.4mm. Every time there is a draw, the next week we see a spike in the "adjustment factor" Crude build this week came from the big dip in crude exports. It’s temporary. EIA reports a 6m bbl increase in #crudeoil stockpiles with import and exports both lower, leaving the net up by 0.6mbp. #gasoline unch and distillates up 4.8m bbl. Production adj lower by 0.1mbd while refinery demand rose but remains below last year on a seasonal level. Some 0.4m bbl left SPR EIA chart:
