Oil higher despite stronger dollar
Oil prices rose on Monday after the European Union agreed on a bailout plan for Ireland. |||
New York – Oil prices rose on Monday after the European Union agreed on a bailout plan for Ireland, which offset some concern that a financial crisis could surface in Portugal and Spain.

Benchmark crude for January delivery rose $1.97 to settle at $85.73 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
