ADP employment increased by 201k from February to March on a seasonally adjusted basis. The actual value little differed from the forecast 205k and the previous value of 208k (revised down from 217k). (Event A on the chart.)
Crude oil inventories increased by 2.9 million barrels, while total motor gasoline inventories decreased by 2.7 million barrels last week. (Event B on the chart.)
