MTECHTIPS:-CRUDE OIL

Crude oil futures jumped above $104 a barrel as the financial markets cheered after a
successful Spanish bond sale which soothed concerns about the euro zone. Oil for delivery in
May added 18 cents, to $104.38 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange during Asian
trading hours. Oil futures ended 1.2% higher on Tuesday, overcoming choppy early trading to
run higher alongside U.S. equities. The American Petroleum Institute (API) reported late
Tuesday that crude-oil inventories rose by 3.4 million barrels for the week ended April 13.
The API data comes ahead of the more closely-watched U.S. Energy Information
Administration report due later in the day. MCX benchmark crude futures may open above
Rs 5370 levels with resistance near Rs 5400 and Rs 5430 levels.
