Oil dips as U.S. stocks rise; prospect of OPEC action supports

LONDON - Oil prices declined on Wednesday, holding below $60 a barrel on data showing a bigger-than-expected rise in U.S. crude stocks, but the prospect of deeper output cuts by OPEC and its allies offered support.

U.S. crude stocks rose by 4.5 million barrels to 437 million barrels in the week ended Oct. 18, compared with analysts’ expectations for a gain of 2.2 million barrels, data from industry group the American Petroleum Institute showed.Helping underpin prices, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries is mulling whether to deepen production cuts amid concerns of weak demand growth next year.

Meanwhile, easing trade tensions between China and the United States, the world’s two largest economies and biggest oil consumers, were also helping to cushion overall sentiment for oil, traders said.
