WTI Crude Oil - Massive "Assault" Again !

The Energy Information Administration poured ice cold water on the budding hope that inventory levels in the world's largest oil consumer may be normalizing, by reporting a 3.3 million barrel build in commercial stockpiles for the week to 
June 2.
 
That happened a day after the API reported a draw of 4.62 million barrels, with analysts expecting the API to report a draw of 3.5 million barrels for last week - but even with expectations for another draw in inventories, prices failed to show any significant enthusiasm, jumping briefly before sagging down again on Tuesday. EIA's figures will likely strengthen the downward trend.
