US crude oil fell more than 3% to $79 a barrel on May 1, 2024, its lowest level in seven weeks, as EIA data showed commercial stockpiles rising 7.3 million barrels to 461 million barrels on lackluster demand. WTI was down about 9% from its 2024 closing high of $86.91.
Surging US crude inventories and weak demand point to lower energy costs, which tends to soften biofuel margins and feedstock demand. The move follows the removal of the April war premium.
