Crude plunged 3% in Wednesday’s trading and took Oklahoma energy stocks with it

Not only did crude oil prices plunge nearly 3% to a seven-week low on Wednesday, it took Oklahoma energy stocks on a downward spiral too.
Oil fell on an unexpected build in US crude stocks along with the Fed decision not to cut near-term interest rates which could have increased oil demand.

Brent crude for July delivery tumbled $2.89 or 3.4% to finish at $83.44 a barrel on ICE Futures Europe. That level was nearly 5% below the Brent June contract when it closed on Tuesday.
June natural gas fell 6 cents to $1.93 per 1,000 cubic feet.
Wednesday was another rough day for Oklahoma energy stocks..most were in the loss column including LSB Industries with a 9% fall, Gulfport Energy finished 5% down and Chesapeake Energy at 4% down.
