Crude Oil Futures Decline as US Inventories Rise

Crude Oil Futures Decline as US Inventories Rise

Imagine oil is like a bunch of toys.

The US has been storing more of these "toy" barrels.

On Thursday, it was announced that the amount of "toys" in storage went up.

When there are more toys than people need, the price of the toys might go down.

The price of oil went down a little.

Also, there were worries about a possible fight between Russia and Poland after a Russian drone entered Polish airspace.

This made people worry about oil supplies, also causing prices to fall.

Other commodities saw mixed results, with some prices going up, and others going down.
