Brent oil hits 2015 high near $67 a barrel

LONDON (Reuters) - Oil reached a 2015 high near $67 a barrel on Monday, supported by expectations the current supply glut will ease and after weak Chinese factory activity reinforced views that stimulus measures would be rolled out.

Brent crude (LCOc1) rallied to trade at $66.94 a barrel as of 0839 GMT and later climbed to $66.95.
