Just heard Sharon Epperson, CNBC's energy correspondent giving the energy news:

It is interesting that oil prices have actually held up fairly well. There are a lot on the street talking about the tightening in supply that we are continuing to see globally...

Interesting, I was not aware that there was a global tightening of crude oil supplies.

At this moment Crude Oil is up thirty cents.

China: Diesel shortage leads to long lines

CHINA'S diesel shortage has paralysed traffic on a pivotal expressway in North-west China, with trucks waiting in long lines to fill their fuel tanks.

Truck driver Zhang Manku said he waited for eight hours on Thursday to fill up at a gas station in Ningqiang, a county in Shaanxi province close to Sichuan province. 'I drove into Shaanxi from Sichuan on the Hanning (Hanzhong-Ningqiang) Expressway at 9am and crept along as part of a 20km queue of trucks. It was 5pm when it was my turn.'

Gao Xiang, an official with the expressway administration, said more than 1,000 trucks were stranded at the Shaanxi-Sichuan border on Thursday. 'Dozens of road workers were mobilized to divert traffic,' Mr Gao said.
