Crude oil futures pushed lower for the second consecutive session. Earlier
today, WTI futures tested some of the most significant technical support levels and traded as
low as $43.74/bbl before finding some late buying that trimmed losses to 56cts after settling
at $44.19/bbl. The Brent and WTI losses were quite similar today as Brent settled at
$45.69/bbl, a loss of 51cts.
