Oil prices ended higher yesterday Friday, pulled by a technical rebound as well as by a US employment indicator which suggests less brutal monetary tightening than expected.
The price of Brent crude from the North Sea for delivery in May gained 1.45%, to close at 82.78 dollars.
As for the barrel of American West Texas Intermediate (WTI), with maturity in April, it appreciated by 1.26%, to 76.68 dollars.
After a start to the session in decline, the course took the height in favor of the monthly report on US employment, which reported 311,000 job creations, above the 225,000 projected by economists.
