Crude Oil Leads Energy Prices Down

Posted on: Thursday, 8 June 2006, 12:00 CDT

Crude oil prices fell to nearly $70 per barrel Thursday, taking most but not all of the other energy commodities down with it.

High-quality crude for July delivery was off 81 cents to $70.01 per barrel, and heating oil slipped 2.2 cents to $1.9735 per gallon.

Gasoline declined 3 cents to $2.0919 per gallon, and AAA said early Thursday that the average U.S. price for regular was up fractionally to $2.888 per gallon.

Natural gas was the one exception to the trend, falling a few pennies to $6.006 per million Btu.
