US Cash Crude-Coastal grades rise before US tariffs on Canada, Mexico paused

Feb 3 (Reuters) - Coastal grades rose on Monday, dealers said, as traders and investors snapped up barrels of medium and heavy crude after U.S. President Donald Trump announced tariffs on Canada and Mexico over the weekend.

After the major trading window on Monday, Trump paused the tariffs due to take effect on Tuesday for 30 days, the leaders of those countries said.

Mars Sour gained 55 cents to a premium of $2 a barrel to U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude, while Heavy Louisiana Sweet was bid and offered at a premium of between $3.25 and $3.75 to WTI, the highest in more than nine months at its midpoint.
