Wind data showed that U.S. WTI crude oil futures and Brent crude oil futures were reported at US$75.76/barrel and US$78.95/barrel respectively, down 2.14% and 1.78% respectively. Analysts said that after international crude oil prices rebounded for three trading days, some investors took profits, combined with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley's negative outlook for crude oil demand, and geopolitical risks also eased, causing oil prices to fall.
The weak performance of crude oil futures dragged down U.S. energy stocks. U.S. energy stocks fell across the board, with Exxon Mobil down 0.93%, Chevron down 1.03%, ConocoPhillips down 0.96%, Schlumberger down 1.21%, and Occidental Oil down 0.92%.
