NEW YORK (Reuters) - Brent crude futures held their gains and U.S. crude initially pared gains in choppy trading after a report showing consumer sentiment, while better than analyst expectations, fell in July.

Brent September crude was up 68 cents to $105.94 a barrel at 10:11 a.m. EDT (1411 GMT), having traded from $105.02 to $106.41. U.S. September crude was up 28 cents at $89.67 a barrel, having traded from $89.13 to $90.23.
