LONDON—Oil prices steadied on Thursday, a day after rising sharply on a bigger-than-expected fall in U.S. inventories, as attention shifted back to rising interest rates denting global economic growth.
Brent crude futures was up 10 cents, or 0.1 percent, to $74.13 a barrel by 1032 GMT. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures rose 11 cents, or 0.2 percent, to $69.67 a barrel.
