Oil tumbled to $61 and energy stocks followed

 

Crude oil prices plunged in Friday’s trading and now investors and producers await Monday’s trading to see if there will be a rebound.

West Texas Intermediate crude for April delivery fell $2.03 to $61.50 a barrel on Friday. Global benchmark Brent crude dropped 75 cents to $66.13 a barrel.

Natural gas for April fell one cent to $2.77 per 1,000 cubic feet.

The drop in energy prices spread quickly to Oklahoma energy stocks. Only two of the stocks we normally carry with Oklahoma bases or operations made gains in Friday’s trading.

Devon Energy stocks increased 19 cents for a nearly 1% gain to $21.54.

Alliance Resource Partners, L.P. went up 15 cents for a 2.45% gain to $5.98.
