CNN —An 18th century bust bought for £5 ($6) nearly 100 years ago by a Scottish town council could sell for more than £2.5 million ($3 million). The bust of landowner and lawmaker John Gordon was sculpted by noted French artist Edmé Bouchardon. Now, local politicians on Invergordon Town Council are weighing up whether to sell the item, described by Sotheby’s as “brilliant in execution,” according to a council report. Despite its illustrious creator, there are few details publicly available about where the bust has been since it was purchased by the council. I found the robes and there was this bust just propping the door open,” she said.

The tightening oil balance will remain the dominant price driver for the rest of 2023, he added. Both benchmarks had slipped on Wednesday after a U.S. supply report showing rising crude and refined product stocks. Priyanka Sachdeva, senior market analyst at Phillip Nova, said supply fears are underpinning oil prices as producers "adamantly stick to restricted production". A day before the IEA report, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) issued updated forecasts of solid demand and also pointed to a 2023 supply deficit if production cuts are maintained. "The oil market looks decidedly tight over the next two to three quarters as supply constraints persist amid robust demand," ANZ Research analysts said.

The British National government had further said that it would examine the bill and could look at blocking it if necessary.
