LONDON (Reuters) - Oil prices leapt to a new peak of more than $126 a barrel on Friday, hitting a record for the fifth straight session, in a market given an additional spur by tight supplies of diesel.
U.S. crude for June delivery rose $1.87 to $125.56 by 9:35 a.m. EDT, off a record high of $126.20 a barrel. London Brent crude rose $2.81 to $125.65 per barrel.
“I’m not particularly surprised by the speed of the rise in crude. There are many market bulls hoping for prices to rise heading into the summer,” said Tetsu Emori, fund manager at Astmax Co Ltd in Tokyo.

Gas oil futures, the benchmark for European heating oil and diesel contract, surged to a new record high on Friday, driven by worries about tight global diesel supplies.
“Lingering geopolitical fears and high heating oil prices are helping the market, but the speed of the rise is too fast,” said Tatsuo Kageyama, analyst at Kanetsu Asset Management in Tokyo.
Gains in U.S. crude picked up momentum after distillate stocks in the United States, notably diesel, fell.
The U.S. government said on Wednesday domestic distillate stocks, which include heating oil and diesel, fell by 100,000 barrels last week, to 105.7 million barrels, against forecasts for an 800,000-barrel rise.
The tightness in distillates was also highlighted after Royal Dutch Shell looked set to shut its second-largest crude distillation unit and two secondary units at its Singapore plant next month for routine maintenance.
Strength in middle distillates has been aggravated by growing demand for transport fuel in Europe and power demand in emerging economies where shortages of alternate fuels have set off a boom in demand for diesel for use in electric generators.
Oil’s relentless rise has once again turned the spotlight on Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), which has for months resisted demands for more oil to try to tame prices.
I hope it was to your benefit!
I love Panera Bread (though it’s rather expensive).
Have you ever had their black bean soup?
Lets see....I like those T-shirts going to open an online store??
Hi dearest.
Had to choice between 2 job offers.
Thanx for the ping
In other words, make Obama out to be damaged goods and kill of the Hilary machine. But also putting McCain’s feet to the fire.
I don't have either one near me, at least not that I know of. (Southern Fairfield county)
I wish you all the best.
When your in CT next, go to the Between Rounds in Glastonbury. Still there. :)
The old shopping center (and I’ll date myself) where GRANTS and First National used to be! I like the Betwen Rounds at the East Hartford/South Windsor town line.

Ahhh. Well I hope you chose the one that will make you happiest! Being stuck in a job you hate stinks.
Letter from Bill Clinton to me re:supporting Hillary:
Dear Reagan,
I want to tell you about the day I had on Monday. I stopped in nine towns throughout North Carolina, starting the day at 7:30 a.m. in Elizabeth City and ending with a rally in Raleigh. That’s the most stops I’ve ever done in a single day — for any campaign. And I couldn’t be happier to work that hard for Hillary.
I talked to a lot of people that day, and one thing was crystal clear — people want Hillary to stay in this race until every last voter has a say. That’s why Hillary and I are working so hard. That’s why we’ve made a deep commitment to keep campaigning, keep fighting, and keep winning.
We have had a lot of success in this campaign, and our come-from-behind victory in Indiana is the latest example of how Hillary wins when she has your support behind her. As long as you share her commitment to winning, this race is going to continue.
Our next test is just five days away in West Virginia. Hillary needs your help right now to keep winning.
Contribute now to help us show the strength of our campaign.
I know something about coming back to win after you’ve been counted out. So does Hillary. Over the course of this campaign, the pundits have tried to declare a premature end to the race dozens of times.
Well, last time I checked, it’s still up to the voters. And there are a lot of voters who haven’t had their say yet.
It’s up to us to make sure that the voters in West Virginia and the other states yet to come are given a choice. I urge you to act now to help Hillary keep fighting.
Show your support by making a contribution today.
I wish I could talk to every last person who has worked so hard for Hillary to thank you for everything you’ve done for her. You mean so much to both of us. She’s still in this thing because of your hard work and your indomitable spirit.
Sincerely,
Bill Clinton
