Heating oil ETF UHN slips after surprise distillate build — what markets watch next

New York, Jan 8, 2026, 07:17 EST — Premarket U.S.-listed heating oil fund UHN slid on Wednesday, tracking a softer tone in distillates after fresh U.S. inventory data.

Sydney, Jan 6, 2026, 17:59 AEDT — Market closed Woodside Energy Group Ltd (WDS.AX) shares ended 0.8% higher at A$23.52 on Tuesday, after trading between A$23.31 and A$23.59.
