KUWAIT, Sept 8 (KUNA) -- The price of Kuwaiti crude oil was up USD 2.82 to reach USD 108.55 per barrel (pb) on Wednesday, compared to USD 105.73 pb on Tuesday, said Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC) on Thursday.
The increase of crude prices was based on expectations that the US President will support the labor sector in the US, after last week's reports that showed a steep drop in the sector's performance. (end) mam.rda.asa KUNA 081112 Sep 11NNNN
