Oil price sell-off accelerates
"OPEC+ decision Thursday effectively means there is no longer anybody around to catch a falling oil price. Hence, if other big countries retaliate this week and/or it becomes clear that the US goes ahead with it planned large scale tariff hike, the oil price could easily drop below USD60/bbl and further."
