Oil Prices Begin Week on Strong Note
Both the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) and Brent oil futures contracts added more than $1 Monday.
May WTI crude oil stayed above the psychologically significant $60 level throughout Monday’s trading. The benchmark gained $1.45 during the early week session, ending the day at $61.59 per barrel. The WTI peaked at $61.72 and bottomed out at $60.13.
Brent crude oil for June delivery climbed to within double-digits of the $70 mark, adding $1.43 to settle at $69.01 per barrel.
As Bloomberg reported earlier Monday, optimism about China’s economic outlook as well as investor hopes that the United States will resume trade negotiations this week with China buoyed crude oil.
The price of a gallon of reformulated gasoline (RBOB) also rose Monday. The May RBOB contract price added nearly two cents, settling at $1.90.
The Henry Hub natural gas benchmark also ended the day higher, with the May futures price adding nearly five cents to settle at $2.71.
“Natural gas futures traded up today by more than one percent,” said Tom McNulty, Houston-based managing director with Great American Group.
