Oil rises as dollar eases, China seeks to soothe economic woes

HOUSTON (Reuters) – Oil prices rose more than 1% on Thursday, after falling for three straight sessions, as the dollar pulled back from highs and as China’s central bank sought to bolster the property market and wider economy.

Brent crude futures rose 95 cents, or 1.2% to $84.42 a barrel by 12:46 p.m. ET (1646 GMT). U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude (WTI) was up $1.23, or 1.6% at $80.60 a barrel.

The previous session, prices fell more than 1.5% on worries about China’s embattled economy and potential for further increases to U.S. interest rates.

China’s central bank said it would keep liquidity reasonably ample and maintain “precise and forceful” policy to support economic recovery against headwinds.

“Oil traders like the fact that China isn’t going to tolerate weakness in economic activity,” said Naeem Aslam at Zaye Capital Markets.

The dollar index slipped off a two-month high, the day after Federal Reserve meeting minutes left the door open for more rate hikes and data this week indicated a resilient U.S. economy.

Higher interest rates increase borrowing costs, which could slow economic growth and reduce oil demand.

On a bullish note, China made a rare draw on crude oil inventories in July, the first time in 33 months it has dipped into storage.

“Travel demand has remained stubbornly strong,” said Dennis Kissler, senior vice president of trading at BOK Financial. Travel demand typically tapers after U.S. Independence day holiday on July 4.

Oil looks like it will find a home around the $80 level as too many risks to the macroeconomic outlook remain on the table, said OANDA analyst Edward Moya.
