 NEW YORK: Oil futures extended their seemingly relentless advance, rising to a new record $123 a barrel.
Light, sweet crude for June delivery hit a new trading record of $123.89 in after-hours activity on the New York Mercantile Exchange after settling up $1.69 at a record close of $123.53 a barrel.
