Crude oil slipped 1% over growing worries about inflation and high interest rates

 

 

Analysts say lingering US inflation that is keeping interest rates higher for more time than investors prefer, also played a role Tuesday as crude oil prices dropped 1% in the day’s trading.

High interest rates might be behind less consumer demand at the gas pumps.

West Texas Intermediate crude, considered the US benchmark, fell 54 cents or 0.7% to $79.26 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Brent crude, the global benchmark, dropped 83 cents or 1% to $82.88 a barrel on ICE Futures Europe.

June natural gas fell 8 cents to $2.67 per 1,000 cubic feet.

The majority of the Oklahoma energy stocks experienced losses in Tuesday’s trading with Gulfport Energy recording a more than 3% drop for the day. EV maker Canoo finished down 5%. The lone exception was Empire Petroleum. It rose nearly 3%.
