What are current factor and usual factors that affect oil and natty price?

<p>I have an interview coming up, thanks a lot</p>

<p>Economic growth/industrial growth, reserves, supply side issues (storms, uprisings, boycotts, new proven reserves, etc), and inflation to name a few.</p>

<p>thanks C-Revs, I was kind of looking for something a little more specific</p>

<p>Some specific current events that I should be aware of would help… Also, when they mean BP trading is more physical than bank commodities trading, what exactly does that mean from a job criteria’s point of view?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>For starters, read this: [Crude</a> and gasoline futures rise on supply data - Yahoo! Finance](<a href=“http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Crude-and-gasoline-futures-apf-2865055660.html?x=0&sec=topStories&pos=7&asset=&ccode=]Crude”>http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Crude-and-gasoline-futures-apf-2865055660.html?x=0&sec=topStories&pos=7&asset=&ccode=)</p>

<p>Its largely the reason Crude is up close to 4.2% as we speak.</p>

<p>I’ll try to give you some more color later when I’m not as busy, for the time being try to understand the article.</p>
