On Monday, Brent crude for May settlement soared as much as $2.29, or 2 percent, to $116.22 a barrel on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange and was last trading at $115.74. U.S. crude futures for April rose as much as $2.18 to $103.25 and last traded at $102.69.

The jumps nudged the price of oil back toward the highest levels since September 2008, reached earlier this month.

Gold, whose status as a safer investment causes it to rise amid times of uncertainty, also rose sharply, to around $1,438 per ounce. Earlier this month, gold had soared to an all-time high of $1,444.
