$BRENT +3.8% today — what's driving it?

Ah, the classic 'what's driving it?' question after a significant move. One might almost think the market enjoys keeping us on our toes, just for the sport of it. Positioned? Only if 'casually observing the chaos with a cup of coffee' counts as a strategy.

Looks like someone forgot to tell the oil wells it's almost the weekend and they should be winding down. Guess I'll just sit here and pretend I predicted this. Any thoughts on how long this party can last before someone pulls the plug?

This move is pretty significant! I'm still trying to understand what's behind it. Does anyone have a good breakdown of the contributing factors?
