0942 ET - Oil futures are lower as President Trump's trade tariff threats remain a concern, including 25% duties against Mexican and Canadian goods, and 10% on Canadian oil. "The oil tariffs and broad-based reciprocal tariffs are increasingly being viewed as a negative influence on global economic growth that could force additional downside revisions in world oil demand in the coming weeks," Ritterbusch says in a note. The firm sees the market more likely to sell rallies than buy pullbacks toward WTI support at $70 a barrel. WTI is off 0.6% at $70.25, and Brent is down 0.7% at $74.26 a barrel.
