In Germany, a survey of investor confidence was upbeat on Tuesday but, looking ahead, traders are concerned about political developments elsewhere in the 17-country eurozone, mainly Italy.

Brent crude, used to price many international varieties of oil, was down 34 cents to $117.66 per barrel on the ICE Futures exchange in London. In other energy futures trading on the Nymex: Heating oil fell 2.98 cents to $3.1806 per gallon. Wholesale gasoline fell 1.33 cents to $3.1212 per gallon. Natural gas added 11.9 cents to $3.2720 per 1,000 cubic feet.
