Oil prices fell for the third day in a row, tumbling more than 3 per cent to the lowest level in three years as traders reacted to a succession of negative indicators for crude demand.
Brent crude, the international benchmark, dropped to $68.68 on Wednesday, the lowest since December 2021. West Texas Intermediate, the US marker, declined more than 4 per cent to $65.27.
The moves came after the US Energy Information Administration reported a larger-than-expected rise in US crude oil stocks, adding to concerns about a slowdown in economic activity after President Donald Trump confirmed new trade tariffs this week on Canada, Mexico and China.
The drop added to losses since Monday when Opec+ surprised the market by confirming it would proceed with a previously delayed plan to pump more crude by ending long-standing production cuts in April. The cartel’s decision means eight members of the producer group, including Saudi Arabia and Russia, will increase production by a combined 2.2mn barrels a day over the next 18 months.

We do not take money from any political parties. We do not endorse In_dia’s ruling party BJP and In_dia’s Prime Minister’s position on keeping In_dia a closed market, ambiguous economy, and keeping India as a heavy taxing country so no one from outside world wants to do business here. It’s like denying In_dia its right in the world…
BJP Government also discourages small and local media, coming down on them heavily regulating and using lawful actions along with soft threats from demented bureaucrat extremists and other extremist groups. On one hand, the mainstream media in In_dia is getting rich and on other hand the local small media is being strangulated. So if not automated or required, We do not willfully publish any content from In_dia or pertaining to that country.
