In London trading... oil stocks recovered from sharp losses on Monday, caused by plunging fuel prices after news that the U.N. and Iraq had reached agreement over weapons inspections.

Amoco (AN - news) climbed $1/8 to $83-1/2 and Atlantic Richfield (quote from Yahoo! UK & Ireland: ARCq.L) recouped $1/4 to $74-1/4.

(Not much, but better than going down more)

The long term chart of oil prices (since 1981) is of WTI crude, which generally runs about $2 per barrel lower than Light sweet crude (which was at $15.40 per barrel yesterday). Thus a historic low for light sweet crude for the last decade would be somewhere around $14 to $14.5 per barrel. So we are still $1 to $1.50 away from 20 year lows. Thanks, I did not pick up this difference at first.
