 In Asia, crude oil for October delivery is trading 0.3% lower at $88.63 per barrel. Yesterday, crude oil for October delivery
declined1.4% or $1.30 to settle at $88.91per barrel, after the US Energy Information Administration report showed that
gasoline inventories increased in the country, offsetting a higher-than-expected decline in crude oil inventories. Crude oil also
declined after a report showed that US retail sales unexpectedly stalled in August, increasing concerns over the strength of the
economy and demand for fuel.
 Gold for immediate delivery is trading 0.4% lower today, at $1,815.8 per ounce. Gold for December delivery dropped 0.2% or
$3.60 to end at $1,826.50 per ounce yesterday, as concerns about the eurozone debt crisis eased amid speculation that China
