Crude Oil Is Crashing Again
Good morning!
It is a new week and crude oil is making new lows.
Near 8:10 am ET on Monday morning, the price of West Texas Intermediate crude oil was down more than 3% to below $47 a barrel, hitting as low as $46.77 as WTI closes in on another multi-year low.
The latest drop in crude on Monday morning comes after a research note from Goldman Sachs saw the firm put a 6-month price target on WTI of $39 a barrel.
Last week, US stocks lost ground in the first full trading week of 2015 as oil was again a loser on the week.
Here's the latest leg lower in crude.
