Oil prices plunged about 7% to settle at their lowest in over three years after China announced additional 34% tariffs on all U.S. goods from April 10. Brent settled at $65.58 and WTI at $61.99, with both posting their biggest weekly losses in roughly a year or more.
Escalating tariffs raise recession odds and cut expected energy demand from the world's top oil importer, pushing crude and energy-linked prices lower. Weaker crude also lowers biofuel and feedstock economics, pressuring soybean oil and palm oil.
