Oil Prices Fall Heavily Into Negative Territory

Published: April 20, 2020, 8:36 p.m.

Tuesday 21st April 2020 Yesterday on the Morning Call we raised the prospect of oil prices lurching into negative territory. This morning, that’s exactly what has happened for WTI, with a vengeance. Phil Dobbie talks to NAB’s Ray Attrill about why this happened and the impact on other sectors – which has actually been fairly constrained. There’s also discussion on government stimulus measures – including signs that the furloughed worker approach is working – plus, words from the RBA Governor today and the New Zealand easing of restrictions.
