What's Wrong With Oil and Gas Stocks Right Now?
The Motley Fool· 2024-06-07 20:43

You can see the change in Brent crude's price below, which is what pushed energy stocks lower. And the oil production and service companies are leveraged plays on oil, so it's no surprise they were heavily impacted. A cut in production, although already in place, should push a commodity like oil higher, but it was the economic w ...
