Oil prices extend losses, firmer dollar and supply outlook weigh

Live Mint  

By Colleen Howe BEIJING, Jan 7 - Oil prices extended losses into a second straight session on Tuesday on technical correction after last week's rally, while forecasts for ample supply and a firm dollar also weighed. Both benchmarks rose for five days in a row last week and settled at their highest levels since October on Friday, partly due to expectations of more fiscal stimulus to revitalise China's faltering economy. "This week's weakness is likely due to a technical correction, as traders react to softer economic data globally that undermines the optimism seen earlier," said Priyanka Sachdeva, senior market analyst at Phillip Nova, referring to bearish economic news from the U.S. and Germany. "Additionally, the dollar's strength is catching up with market sentiment and appears to be trimming the current gains in oil prices," Sachdeva said.
