ICE Brent prompt contract recovered to 63.6 $/b on early Thursday after a loss on Wednesday.

Biden’s $2 trillion economic stimulus package showed a growing emphasis on road infrastructure, which will likely have a bullish outlook for industrial commodities and crude oil. Today’s OPEC ministerial meeting should yield a rollover of the production agreement.
