April futures for delivery of crude oil fell $0.27 (0.3 percent) to $105.98 per barrel by 13:53 on NYMEX, following the previous rise to $106.47, the highest settlement since May 5. Brent crude jumped from $121.50 to $122.91 per barrel as of 19:30 GMT today on ICE and reached the daily high of $123.23 — the highest since May 3.
