Daily morning note, 1 Jun 2026

Brent, WTI and Henry Hub from the EIA daily spot, with the change from the previous print, from about a week earlier and from about a month earlier. EIA publishes the spot one to two business days after the trade date.

Latest EIA print: 3 Nov 2026

EIA publishes the daily spot one to two business days after the trade date. A Monday trade date is often on the site on Tuesday. Weekends and US holidays widen the calendar gap, so the print date is not the day this page was opened.

This note uses Brent 1 Jun 2026, WTI 1 Jun 2026, Henry Hub 1 Jun 2026.
