U.S. renewable fuel credits rose to multi-month highs on Friday on increased demand from refiners trying to comply with mandates and higher prices for soyoil, surprising traders who expected Donald Trump's reelection as U.S. president to weigh on the market.

Prices for both the D4 RINs, issued to biomass-based diesel producers, and the D6 RINs, issued to ethanol suppliers, rose as high as 79 cents each on Friday, traders said.

Tesla surged on Friday, capping a huge week for the EV maker as the stock hit its highest close in over two years. Optimism over CEO Elon Musk’s relationship with President Trump has sent investors into a frenzy, with Tesla’s market cap now topping $1 trillion.
