Trump invites landmark $8 billion project to return to America​

President Donald Trump is trying to lure an $8billion infrastructure project back to the United States with promises they can begin 'almost' right away after former president Joe Biden killed the deal.

Trump intends to revive the long-dead Keystone XL pipeline, which would travel between Canada and Virginia carrying upwards of 830,000 barrels per day of oil into the United States.

Taking to TruthSocial on Monday night, the president said the pipeline 'that was viciously jettisoned by the incompetent Biden Administration should come back to America.'

'Get it built - NOW,' he added.

'I know they were treated very badly by Sleepy Joe Biden, but the Trump Administration is very different.'

Crude Oil Prices Tumble on Demand Concerns​

April WTI crude oil (CLJ25) Monday closed down -1.01 (-1.51%), and April RBOB gasoline (RBJ25) closed down -0.0162 (-0.77%).

Crude oil and gasoline prices on Monday posted moderate losses. Monday's selloff in the S&P 500 to a 5-3/4 month low sparked risk-off sentiment in asset markets, weighing on crude prices. Also, signs of economic weakness in China are negative for energy demand after China's consumer prices posted their steepest decline in 13 months. In addition, concern that US tariffs will spark a trade war that dampens economic growth and energy demand are undercutting crude prices. Losses in crude oil accelerated Monday after the dollar recovered from early losses and moved higher.
