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.

Have a Great Day,

loren: Fuel Manager Services Inc. "Serving the trucking industry since 1992" I've been in and around the trucking industry for 45-years beginning in owner operator operations at Willis Shaw Express. I bought a small trucking company that I ran for 6-years then sold and went to work for J.B. Hunt Transport in 1982. After 10-years with Hunt, I started Fuel Manager Services, Inc., we are in our 29th year of serving the American trucking companies. Our simple goal was and is to bridge the gap between the trucking companies and the fuel suppliers.
