Energy markets faced mixed performance on Tuesday with Dow-Jones Energy Index falling by 1.06% over the day. Natural gas and heating oil were among the top losers as natural gas continued to face strong downward pressure from mild weather forecasts and constantly growing US inventories. At the same time, crude oil overcame psychologically significant level of $100 per barrel, ending the day at $100.71 per barrel. Upswing for crude oil was based on the strong data form China, the US and Germany and the steps towards Iranian oil ban in Europe. However, crude oil may lose its momentum as Saudi Arabia seems to agree to increase oil exports to offset Iranian shortfall even despite Iranian threats.

Correlation between crude oil, Brent oil and heating oil edged down as Brent oil and heating oil faced additional pressure from worries over the European debt crisis. Crude oil's link with natural gas dropped essentially as US inventories blocked any stimulus for natural gas price increase. Interdependence between crude oil and Standard and Poor's SP500 (SPX) eased down after positive headlines from China and the EU. Meanwhile, crude oil's tie with the pair EUR/USD moved up to 0.2 as crude oil and the Euro positively responded to improved ZEW sentiment in Germany.
