U.S. crude futures settle 2 cents lower after choppy trading
NEW YORK, Feb 6 (Reuters) - U.S. crude futures edged lower on Wednesday in choppy trading, as a government report showing crude oil inventories rose in the United States last week applied pressure to oil prices.
U.S. March crude fell 2 cents, or 0.02 percent, to settle at $96.62 a barrel, having traded from $95.04 to $96.99.
