March WTI crude oil (CLH25) today is down -1.10 (-1.50%), and March RBOB gasoline (RBH25) is down -0.0320 (-1.49%).
Crude oil and gasoline prices today are moderately lower. Today's rally in the dollar index (DXY00) to a 1-week high weighs energy prices. Also, today's fall in the S&P 500 to a 1-week low undercuts confidence in the economic outlook and energy demand. Crude prices extended their losses after weekly EIA crude inventories rose more than expected.
