Oil fell about 5.7% on May 22, 2019, with WTI settling at $57.91, its lowest close since March 12. Brent fell to $67.64 intraday.
Losses were driven by expectations of a prolonged US-China trade war and weak manufacturing data from Japan, Germany and the EU, while easing Middle East tensions added pressure.
Expectations of weaker global growth and fuel demand push crude lower, which in turn lowers energy input costs and reduces support for biofuel-linked feedstocks.
