Oil prices extended losses overnight from yesterday afternoon, but bounced back into the green this morning after WTI found support at $89 after Goldman upgraded its forecast.
“The impressive run-up in crude oil prices had to come to a temporary halt and today’s Fed decision on interest rates provides the perfect excuse to bank some money,” PVM Oil Associates Ltd. analyst Tamas Varga wrote in a note.
