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.
Based on preliminary data, the Dow Jones Industrial Average finished up 38.04 points, or less than 0.1%, at 40,974.97.
The S&P 500 closed down by 8.86 points, or almost 0.2%, at 5,520.07. Wednesday's level was the lowest since Aug. 14.
The Nasdaq Composite fell 52 points, or 0.3%, to finish at 17,084.30. Wednesday's level was the lowest since Aug. 12.
On Tuesday, all three indexes ended with their largest percentage declines since Aug. 5.
