Energy market faced mixed performance on Friday with falling Brent and crude oil and growing natural gas and heating oil. Crude oil retreated from 110 US Dollars per barrel on the weaker equities and stronger US Dollar. Moreover, Saudi Arabia denied rumors on the key pipeline explosion that was the main factor sending oil prices to ten-month high. Further, Barack Obama said on Friday that the military conflict with Iran is less possible as it would generate sympathy for the country. More stable situation in the region created a downward pressure on the oil futures.  Natural gas posted slight gains despite elevated inventories and mild weather forests in the US. Bottom-fishing buying of the natural gas was supportive for its price.

Connection between crude oil and gold jumped from 0.11 to 0.22 on Friday amid strengthening US Dollar. Crude oil's tie with the natural gas remained in the negative territory approaching two-month low of minus 0.25. At the same time, interdependence between crude and Brent oil improved to 0.70 while its correlation with heating oil fell to 0.27. Meanwhile, crude oil's alternation with the Dow Jones Industry Average (INDU) dropped from 0.40 to 0.34.
