CommSec’s James Gruber says oil prices sinking “quite sharply” to $US114 “helped” the S&P 500 rise overnight. “The S&P 500 finished up one per cent, and that was due to a mix of decent corporate results, as well as oil prices sinking quite sharply,” Mr Gruber told Sky News Australia. “Yesterday, they settled at $US118 a barrel. They climbed to $US126 overnight but then plummeted to $US114 at the close and that helped shares along the way.” Presented by CommSec.
