U.S. Oil Stockpiles Fall to 410.6 Million Barrels

U.S. stockpiles of raw crude oil fell 1.9 million barrels to 410.6 million in the week ended October 23, the Energy Information Administration reported October 28, according to Reuters. A barrel is 42 U.S. gallons. That drop was smaller than the 3.2 million barrel fall in the week ended October 2, but one week doesn't prove a trend.
