WTI Crude Oil -5.9% — unusual move
Why now
Thesis: Oil selloff cuts inflation but hits energy names
Catalyst to watch: OPEC+ response or demand data
Main risk: Further demand weakness deepens selloff
Why it matters
A 5.9% WTI drop eases inflation pressure but signals weaker demand or oversupply, weighing on energy equities and oil-linked currencies.
Details
WTI Crude Oil (CL=F) moved -5.9% in the latest period (1d). Close: 89.02, prior: 94.59.
