[ニューヨーク 5日 ロイター] –Crude oil futures fell about 9%, the largest drop since March. There was growing concern that a global recession and a lockdown in China would lead to a decline in demand.
The liquidation price is $ 102.77 per barrel, which is $ 10.73 (9.5%) lower for Brent futures on the North Sea. US WTI futures are down $ 8.93 (8.2%) to $ 99.50.
Both futures had the highest rate of decline since March 9.
Mizuho’s director of energy futures, Robert Yoger, said recession concerns were the only cause of the plunge.
