Oil falls while gasoline advances
On Monday, prices for oil were falling, ending a 2-day streak of gains, while gasoline prices were advancing, since refineries stopped their operations before Hurricane Sandy. On the NYMEX, December delivery futures fell by $0.50, hitting a session low of $85.78 per barrel, and subsequently consolidated at $85.95 by 2:47 p.m. in Singapore.
