Owing to the global energy crises, commodity prices are going through a lot of price fluctuation these days.
Out of the geopolitical and other economic factors, some commodities like energy and non-energy commodities are rising from their previous rates. However, some other important commodities like gold and silver have been going through a downfall for the past couple of days.
So, let’s discuss today’s price chart of different top trading commodities and evaluate each of them in detail below.
1- WTI Oil
When the Ukraine Russia war started, the global trading community was affected a lot. The US oil companies are still trying to rebuild the export-import price rates.
Moreover, by looking at the price charts, we can further dictate that WTI Oil currently stands at 97.28 USD per barrel with a huge decrease of 4.36% from the last 24 hours.
At the time of writing, the oil price has decreased by 3.39% in the last 7 days, showing its rapid decline rate.
2- Brent Crude oil
The Brent crude oil price has decreased due to the slowing demand in China. The country has been in the state of shutdown from the past days which resulted in the low rates of Brent oil.
This caused a huge impact on the oil prices and currently, it stands at a rate of 100.82 USD per Barrel in the market. The current price is with a significant decrease of about 5.07% at the time of writing and has decreased 4.02% in the last 7 days.
