Oil prices boosted by 1%

Oil prices rose almost 1% on Thursday on expectations the U.S. dollar would weaken after Friday's key speech by U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen, making greenback-denominated commodities more attractive to holders of other currencies.
       
U.S. crude's West Texas Intermediate (WTI) futures rose $0.33, or 0.7%, to $47.10 
      
WTI lost almost 3% in the previous session.
