Oil Prices Dip Under Worries U.S.-China Dispute Will Disrupt World Economy

(Undated) — Oil prices are down slightly as investors continue to worry the U.S.-China trade fight will grind down worldwide economic growth.

International benchmark Brent crude is down seven cents, to $75.75.

West Texas Intermediate crude is off nine cents, to $68.63 a barrel.

Analysts say rising trade tensions between the U.S. and China are keeping a lid on prices.

But falling inventories in the U.S. and looming American sanctions on Iran’s oil are keeping prices from falling too far.
