Crude oil. <API reported a 7.6 million-barrel build>

vs expectation range of draw of 5 million to build of 1 million bbls.

Definitely a bearish report. Should give us a good dip in some of the energy stocks tomorrow.

*OT* I couldn't find Updike's essay on Williams' final at-bet on the Web (yes, AJ, he homered in his final at-bat, and Updike was at the game), but I did find the last paragraph:

Like a feather caught in a vortex, Williams ran around the square of bases at the center of our beseeching screaming. He ran as he always ran out home runs - hurriedly, unsmiling, head down, as if our praise were a storm of rain to get out of. He didn't tip his cap. Though we thumped, wept, and chanted "We want Ted" for minutes after he hid in the dugout, he did not come back. Our noise for some seconds passed beyond excitement into a kind of immense open anguish, a wailing, a cry to be saved. But immortality is nontransferable. The papers said that the other players, and even the umpires on the field, begged him to come out and acknowledge us in some way, but he refused. Gods do not answer letters.
