Oil & Commodity prices sink

Last month, OPEC and some non-OPEC producers extended a deal to cut 1.8 million barrels per day in supply until March 2018. The increase in U.S. drilling activity and shale production has offset efforts by OPEC and other producers to cut output in a move to prop up the market. Oil prices sank to the lowest level since November as concerns over a steady increase in U.S. production added to fears over a glut in the market. The U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude August contract closed at $42.53 a barrel, while Brent oil for August delivery closed at $44.82 a barrel.

The benchmark RSS4 grade rubber closed at `.122 a kg at Kottayam, while RSS3 grade closed at `.114.18 a kg at Bangkok and Malaysian SMR20 closed at `.89.51 a kg. On National Multi Commodity Exchange July 2017, the futures closed at `.124.70 a kg, August at `.127.38 and September 2017 closed at `.126.85 a kg. Tokyo Commodity Exchange June 2017 futures series closed at ¥197 a kg, July at ¥190.9, August at ¥192.1, September at ¥191.4, October at ¥186.8 and the contract for delivery in November 2017 closed at ¥186.3 a kg. On Thursday, most probably Tocom futures contract for delivery in November 2017 may trade in the positive range of ¥187 & ¥195 a kg.

  1. My Testimony Hello everyone. Am here to testify how I got my loan from Mr. Benjamin after I applied several times from various loan lenders who promised to help but they never gave me the loan. Until a friend of mine introduced me to Mr.Benjamin Lee promised to help me and indeed he did as he promised without any form of delay.I never thought there are still reliable loan lenders until I met Mr. Benjamin Lee, who indeed helped with the loan and changed my belief. I don't know if you are in any way in need of a genuine and urgent loan, Be free to contact Mr. Benjamin via WhatsApp +1-989-394-3740 and  his email: 247officedept@gmail.com thank you.
