> Bloomberg reports that US refiners have reduced their purchases of Saudi oil to zero. Earlier this year, American refiners were buying more than 600,000 barrels a day from Saudi Arabia. The shift marks the first time in four decades that US imports of Saudi oil have reached nothing. It signals a major change in the two countries’ oil trade.
