Global Cues

Oil prices rallied Wednesday as the market waits to hear from Congress about the proposed $700 bailout plan and for weekly supply data from the government.

Oil climbed $1.24 at $107.85 a barrel. On Tuesday, oil slipped $2.76 to settle at $106.61 a barrel as the market refocused on how the dour economic situation has crimped demand.

Bailout plan: The oil market has been waiting to hear from Congress about a $700 billion proposed bailout plan for beleaguered financial services companies. The debate over the rescue was very heated Tuesday.

The plan could pull oil prices higher, depending on the specific terms of the plan and depending on the economy's reaction to whatever plan is adopted.

If the bailout were passed and served to jumpstart the lethargic economy, the oil market hopes that demand for energy would recover to healthy levels. If the economy recovers and demand for oil recovers, then oil prices jump.
