September WTI crude oil (CLU25) today is down -0.48 (-0.73%), and September RBOB gasoline (RBU25) is down -0.0029 (-0.14%).
Crude oil and gasoline prices erased an early advance today and turned lower due to a stronger dollar. Also, optimism for the US to reach new trade deals was dampened, which weighed on crude prices, after President Trump said the US has a 50-50 chance of striking a trade deal with Europe before next week's deadline.
