April WTI crude oil (CLJ25) Friday closed down -2.08 (-2.87%), and April RBOB gasoline (RBJ25) closed down -0.0560 (-2.41%).

Friday's US economic news was primarily weaker-than-expected and bearish for crude prices.  On the negative side, the University of Michigan US Feb consumer sentiment index was revised lower by -3.1 to a 15-month low of 64.7, weaker than expectations of no change at 67.8.... Read more
