Oil markets bucked the trend for at least one day as both WTI and Brent edged higher after slumping earlier this morning.

Some are speculating that equities have reached a bottom while the dollar lost steam helping broader commodities along with crude.

Irving Oil announced an extended close of its Saint John, New Brunswick refinery which is a major provider of gasoline to the Northeast U.S.

The unanticipated delay aided in additional support during today's trading.
