• US gas prices will jump back to $4.35 soon because supplies are running low, Goldman Sachs says
  Goldman Sachs has predicted the cost of US gas at the pump will jump back to around $4.35 a gallon...
  Goldman Sachs has predicted the cost of US gas at the pump will jump back to around $4.35 a gallon by the end of the year, and then reach an average of $4.40 next year, as supply shortages push up prices.
  
  Gas prices have fallen dramatically over the past month or so after topping $5 a gallon in June, as oil prices have fallen and bottlenecks at refineries have eased. The AAA said the average price was $4.059 a gallon on Monday.
  
  But Goldman said in a note Sunday it expects oil prices to pick up from here, after sharp falls in recent weeks. That's because supplies are still running low, while global demand has remained relatively strong.

• MarketWatch: The Dow manages to close with a gain, but other indexes sputter Monday

  U.S. stocks closed mostly lower Monday, but only slightly changed from Friday's finish as investors awaited a highly anticipated update on U.S. inflation. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, 0.09% added about 28 points, or 0.1%, closing near 32,831, after briefly topping the 33,000 mark earlier Monday. The S&P 500 index SPX, -0.12% shed 0.1%, while the Nasdaq Composite Index COMP, -0.10% also fell 0.1%. In addition to August hitting the "dog days" of summer when many on Wall Street and beyond take time off for vacations, investors appeared hesitant to make big moves in equities ahead of the consumer-price index update for July, due Wednesday, after its last monthly update pegged the cost of living at a 9.1% annual rate, a 41-year high. Wednesday's CPI reading comes on the heels of Friday's blockbuster jobs report for July, which underscored strong wage gains for workers in the past year, which may complicate the Federal Reserve's efforts to cool inflation, particularly if household demand for goods and services stays robust and keeps pressure on prices, despite higher interest rates.
