While Brent on Inter Continental Exchange increased by $0.32/bbl in compared to last trading and was assessed around $48.11/bbl.

• U.S. gasoline stocks dropped 3.7 million barrels in the most recent week, far exceeding the expected drop of 1.1 million barrels. Still, gasoline inventories remain about 6 percent above seasonal averages, so investors will watch for July data to see if demand is strong enough to whittle down stocks.
