Crude Oil Prices Slip With Stocks
By Timothy Puko
Oil prices retreated Friday, following stocks lower after the latest jobs data showed weaker-than-expected employment gains.
Analysts say the U.S. nonfarm payrolls are the most significant economic data point before the U.S. Federal Reserve's meeting in September. They rose a seasonally adjusted 173,000 in August, compared with the 220,000 increase projected by economists surveyed by The Wall Street Journal.
Light, sweet crude for October delivery settled down 70 cents, or 1.5%, to $46.05 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Brent, the global benchmark, lost $1.07, or 2.1%, to $49.61 a barrel on ICE Futures Europe. U.S. oil finished the week up 1.8%, but Brent lost 0.9% for the week.
