8:40 EDT -- Crude-oil futures pare early losses Friday after monthly jobs report comes in just below expectations while the unemployment rate falls to 7.8%, the lowest level in more than three-and-a-half years, raising hopes for further economic improvement that will increase oil demand. Nymex crude recently trades at $91.40/bbl, after trading as low as $90.49/bbl just before the data release. (jerry.dicolo@dowjones.com)
