U.S. crude oil fell more than 1% on Wednesday, tumbling below $70 per barrel and raising speculation that OPEC+ could delay production increases scheduled to begin next month.
The U.S. benchmark hit a session low of $68.83, the lowest level since Dec. 13, after plunging more than 4% on Tuesday. U.S. crude and global benchmark Brent have erased all gains for 2024.
“With demand growth uncertain and significant supply outages looking unlikely, all eyes are again on OPEC+,” Svetlana Tretyakova, senior analyst at Rystad Energy, said in a note Wednesday. “Until OPEC+ clarifies its strategy, overall bearishness will persist.”
Here are Wednesday’s closing energy prices:
U.S. stocks finished mostly lower on Wednesday, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq ending down for the fourth time in the past five sessions, as investors continued to focus on the prospect of an economic slowdown.
