U.S. diesel inventories unexpectedly increased last week, causing diesel futures to fall

The EIA reported that U.S. diesel inventories rose unexpectedly in the latest week. U.S. diesel futures fell after the release.

WHY IT MATTERS

A surprise build in diesel stocks signals looser near-term US distillate supply, which weighs on diesel futures. Feed buyers may see a small easing in fuel and freight costs.
