September WTI crude oil on Monday closed down -0.74 (-0.89%), and Sep RBOB gasoline closed down -5.87 (-1.98%).
Crude oil and gasoline prices Monday settled moderately lower. Monday’s rally in the dollar index to a 5-week high pressured energy prices. Also, concerns that a worsening of China’s property debt crisis will weigh on its economy and energy demand undercut crude prices.
Crude prices are under pressure on fresh concerns about China’s economy after a unit of Zhongzhi Enterprise Group, one of China’s top private wealth managers, missed payments on multiple high-yield investment products. The worsening of China’s debt crisis threatens to curb economic growth and demand for commodities, including crude oil.
Another negative factor for crude prices is the progress made in Iran-U.S. relations that could lead to higher crude exports from Iran after Iran said last week’s deal with the U.S. on the release of prisoners and frozen Iranian funds could lead to diplomacy in other areas, including its nuclear program. An agreement on Iran’s nuclear program could prompt the U.S. and its allies to remove sanctions on Iranian crude exports, boosting global crude supplies.
