On Thursday, Shares of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras (NYSE:PBR), gained 2.08% to $8.83, as oil prices rose about 1 per cent on Thursday after tame U.S. jobs and economic data signaled the Federal Reserve would be less hasty to raise interest rates while a surge in gasoline futures drove expectations for more crude demand.
But with the Greek debt crisis unresolved and Iran nuclear talks pending, and Friday’s U.S. Independence Day holiday making for a longer-than-usual weekend, some caution prevailed, limiting the rally.
Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. Petrobras operates as an integrated energy company in Brazil and internationally. Its Exploration and Production segment engages in the exploration, development, and production of crude oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas; and sale of crude oil and oil products produced at natural gas processing plants in domestic and foreign markets.
