Brent crude price slips on big U.S. stock build as Iran talks and OPEC+ loom

Brent crude futures edged down on Wednesday, pressured by a U.S. government report showing crude inventories jumped much more than markets expected, dampening appetite sparked by Middle East tensions. Brent dropped 12 cents to $70.65 a barrel as of 1607 GMT. U.S. West Texas Intermediate slipped 26 cents, settling at $65.37. The Energy Information Administration posted a 16 million-barrel increase—analysts had looked for just 1.5 million. UBS's Giovanni Staunovo called the data “a bearish report,” though he noted the hit to prices was muted.

Nvidia stock climbs ahead of earnings as AMD-Meta deal keeps AI chip stocks in play

Nvidia jumped 2.2% on Wednesday, lifting AI names and sending the Nasdaq to a two-week high as the market eyed the chip giant’s quarterly numbers due after the bell. By 11:44 a.m. ET, the Nasdaq had gained 1.07%, the S&P 500 moved up 0.67%, and the Philadelphia semiconductor index notched a record. S&P tech climbed 1.7%. Options priced in a roughly 5.6% post-earnings swing. “The lack of new news helped to stabilize markets globally,” BNY’s Bob Savage said, with traders also watching for results from Salesforce and Snowflake later in the day.

Oil prices dip after surprise U.S. stock build as Brent, WTI juggle Iran talks and OPEC+ supply

Oil prices turned lower on Wednesday, pushed down after U.S. government numbers showed crude inventories jumped far more than analysts had forecast, outweighing any upside from fresh U.S.-Iran friction. Brent slipped 12 cents to $70.65 a barrel as of 11:16 a.m. ET, a 0.2% drop. U.S. West Texas Intermediate fell 26 cents, or 0.4%, trading at $65.37. “The oil market remains more influenced by other factors at present, such as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East,” UBS commodity analyst Giovanni Staunovo said.

U.S. stocks advanced Wednesday, sending both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq to their highest levels in two weeks, as megacap tech names rallied ahead of Nvidia’s earnings due out later.

Nvidia shares popped 2.2%, helping lift the Philadelphia SE Semiconductor Index to an all-time high. Options markets had been pointing to about a 5.6% swing in Nvidia post-earnings, reflecting bets on volatility. BNY’s Bob Savage described the setup simply: “focus on AI will continue” with the report.
