US Cash Crude-Grades fall as US crude, fuel stocks rise

July 15 (Reuters) - Grades fell on Tuesday after American Petroleum Institute data showed domestic crude and fuel stocks rose last week, dealers said.

U.S. crude, distillate and gasoline stocks rose last week, market sources said, citing API figures.

Crude stocks rose by 839,000 barrels in the week ended July 11, the sources said on condition of anonymity. Gasoline inventories rose by 1.93 million barrels and distillate stocks rose by 828,000 barrels, they said.

Meanwhile, oil futures dropped by less than 1% on Tuesday after U.S. President Donald Trump's 50-day deadline for Russia to end the war in Ukraine and avoid sanctions eased concerns about any immediate supply disruption. O/R
