In US wholesale petrol prices slipped below the $1 a gallon level on Friday 21st, as commodity markets priced in a likely demand crunch amid forecasts for a prolonged global recession.

Nymex December RBOB unleaded gasoline touched a low of $0.9870 a gallon before rebounding to trade 0.03 cents higher at $1.0349 a gallon. In the previous session, petrol prices broke the $1 a gallon level for the first time since the current Nymex contract specification came into existence in 2006.
