Oil rises $3 a barrel towards $91



    LONDON (Reuters) - Oil rose by $3 a barrel on Tuesday after a surprisingly large interest rate cut by Australia's central bank sparked hopes that other policymakers would follow suit to stem the credit crisis.

    U.S. crude oil was up $3 a barrel at $90.81 as of 3:21 a.m. EDT.
