Risk-Off Sentiment in Asset Markets Weighs on Crude Prices

May WTI crude oil (CLK25) today is down -1.67 (-2.58%), and May RBOB gasoline (RBK25) is down -0.0408 (-1.94%).

Crude oil and gasoline prices today are moderately lower.  Today's stock sell-off has sparked risk-off sentiment in asset markets and is weighing on energy prices.  Also, the ongoing US-China trade war threatens to slow economic growth and energy demand.  Losses in crude are limited due to today's plunge in the dollar (DXY00) to a 3-year low.
