Crude and gasoline prices on Thursday settled mixed, with crude rebounding from a 3-week low and gasoline falling to a 2-week low. A stronger dollar Thursday weighed on energy prices. Crude also has a negative carryover from Wednesday, when the EIA reported that crude inventories rose more than expected to a 10-month high. Lingering geopolitical risks between Iran and Israel are limiting the downside in crude prices.
