April WTI crude oil (CLJ26) on Monday closed down -0.17 (-0.26%), and April RBOB gasoline (RBJ26) closed up +0.0035 (+0.16%).
Crude oil and gasoline prices gave up early gains on Monday and settled mixed, with crude retreating from a 6.5-month high. Monday's slump in equity markets undercuts confidence in the economic outlook and energy demand, and sparked long liquidation pressures in crude oil.
