Brent is roofing, while EBOB is going the opposite direction and Dangote still has its own issues...

Brent is flying folks – we’re up over $67/bbl – the highest since September! Just as the dollar can’t catch a break! The dollar is hanging by a thread, with the DXY index down to 96.4 today, now down more than 3% from last Monday’s open.
