RTRS: U.S. crude bounces up as dollar offsets jobs data
Dec 3 (Reuters) - U.S. crude oil futures prices pared losses and turned positive on Friday in choppy trading as the dollar's weakness helped offset a report showing nonfarm payrolls in the United States added fewer jobs than expected in November.
On the New York Mercantile Exchange, January crude CLF1 was up 25 cents at $88.25 a barrel at 10:01 a.m. EST (1501 GMT), trading from $87.14 to $88.33. (Reporting by Robert Gibbons; Editing by Marguerita Choy)
