Crude oil futures rose sharply Tuesday morning amid renewed hopes the U.S. and China can avoid a trade war.

After a conciliatory tweet about friendship from Donald Trump, Chinese Premier Xi said he want to open his country's market to more foreign products.

WTI light sweet oil was up $1.30 at $64.73 a barrel.

Traders will be keeping an eye on U.S. oil inventories data over the next few days.
