Oil futures declined again in early Monday trading in Asia, this time to a five-year low of about $64 per barrel for West Texas Intermediate and a new four-year low of about $68 for Brent crude.

Both indexes have now declined for the past five consecutive months. The last slide of equal length occurred in 2008 during the global financial crisis.
