November WTI crude oil (CLX23) on Friday closed down -0.92 (-1.00%), and Nov RBOB gasoline (RBX23) closed down -6.67 (-2.70%).
Nov WTI crude oil and gasoline prices Friday retreated, with gasoline tumbling to a 4-1/2 month low. Crude prices were under pressure after Friday’s weaker-than-expected global economic news sparked concerns that a slowdown in the global economy will undercut energy demand. A weaker dollar Friday limited losses in crude. Also, tight global crude supplies are a bullish factor for prices.
