Oil sinks to six-month low amid weak data, slump in gasoline

Oil sinks to six-month low amid weak data, slump in gasoline

NEW YORK Oil sank to six-month lows on Monday with Brent crude falling below $50 a barrel on sluggish U.S. and Chinese economic data and bets for weaker gasoline consumption in the United States after tearaway demand earlier in the summer.

Evidence of growing global oversupply and a stock market collapse in China, the world’s largest energy consumer, have weighed on oil for weeks, leading in July to U.S. crude futures’ largest monthly decline since the 2008 financial crisis.

On Monday, the rout deepened as U.S. gasoline fell its most in a day in 10 months.

Supply worries aside, traders pinned the latest losses on sluggish U.S. and Chinese data.

U.S. consumer spending advanced at its slowest pace in four months in June as demand for automobiles softened. Growth in Chinese manufacturing, meanwhile, unexpectedly stalled in July.

“Economic weakness has set the tone,” said Matt Smith, director of commodity research at ClipperData, a New York-based energy database.

“But the gasoline crack spread is also unraveling,” Smith said, referring to the difference between gasoline and U.S. crude prices, which sets the profit margin for refiners.

Brent LCOc1, the global benchmark for crude, was down $2.35, or 4.5 percent, at $49.86 a barrel by 2:05 p.m. EDT. Brent’s session bottom of $49.52 was the lowest since Jan. 30.

U.S. crude CLc1 was down $1.75, or 3.7 percent, $45.37.

“The chart is looking anything but constructive,” said Fawad Razaqzada, technical analyst in London for forex.com, who expects U.S. crude to test its March low of $42.03 and Brent its January bottom of $45.19.

Gasoline RBc1 fell about 5 percent, its most in a day since Sept. 2. The gasoline crack, or spread with U.S. crude CL-RB1=R, narrowed to below $26, its lowest in more than a week.

A Reuters survey last week showed oil output by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) reached the highest monthly level in recent history in July.

The survey showed Saudi Arabia and other key OPEC members are keen to defend market over crude prices, which are down 12 percent this year, after last year’s 48 percent tumble.

Hedge funds and other speculators have cut their bullish exposure to U.S. crude to a near 5-year low, trade data showed on Friday, as local drillers added rigs and pumped at full throttle despite the global oil glut. [RIG/U]

This is the happiest moment of my life I just made six months with my beautiful and amazing girlfriend. I hate how she has to go through many sad things and we had a bad argument last night. But now I just want to tell the world how important she is to me and remind her that we will live happily ever after.

(via Gold price hits six-month trough as dollar surges - FT.com)

Gold fell to the lowest point in almost half a year as investors exchanged the metal for more liquid dollars.

Spot gold in London fell to $1,523 a troy ounce, the weakest since July and down almost $400 from a nominal record reached this year.

The reversal has spooked investors searching for havens. The largest gold exchange-traded fund, held by individual investors and the biggest hedge funds alike, has unloaded 44 tonnes, or 3 per cent of its hoard, this month.

The latest fall came as the year ends and some traders, including banks, sought to raise cash. They turned to dollars, which Thursday rose to a 15-month high against the euro.

“When you have an environment of a stronger dollar and people looking for the most liquid thing they can put money into, that pressures gold,” said Hayden Atkins, senior analyst at Macquarie in London...

White House Lifts Ban on Offshore Oil Drilling.

WASHINGTON (Oct. 12) --The Obama administration on Tuesday lifted the six-month moratorium on deep water oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico that was imposed after the BP oil spill. The administration has been under heavy pressure from the industry and others in the region to lift the ban on grounds it has cost jobs and damaged the economy. A federal report said the moratorium likely caused a temporary loss of 8,000 to 12,000 jobs in the Gulf region. While the temporary ban on exploratory oil and gas drilling is lifted immediately, drilling is unlikely to resume immediately. Michael Bromwich, director of the agency that oversees offshore drilling, said it would take "at least a couple of weeks" after the ban is lifted before permits are approved. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said that new rules imposed after the BP spill - the worst environmental disaster in the country's history - have strengthened safety measures and reduced the risk of another catastrophic blowout. "Operators who play by the rules and clear the higher bar can be allowed to resume" drilling, Salazar said at a news conference. "The oil and gas industry will be operating under tighter rules, stronger oversight, and in a regulatory environment that will remain dynamic as we continue to build on the reforms we have already implemented," he said.
