@FirstSquawk Drain the swamp

@FirstSquawk -9.1M vs -3.4M expected. Nearly 3x the draw. US demand absorbing supply faster than modeled. The hemisphere consuming its own reserves while global supply is disrupted. XLE +40% wasn’t a trade. It was the thesis.

@FirstSquawk -9.1M barrel draw is triple the expectation. That's enough to crimp any near-term rally in crude, especially with refiners already running cautious. Demand signal just got a lot quieter
