Oil prices slump as market faces lowest demand in 25 years

Global oil prices have slumped as traders judge that plans for the biggest production cuts in history will fail to offset the deepest fall in demand in 25 years.

To clarify, 25 years ago, 1995, the demand for oil in March was lower than it has been for last March when flights have been grounded, travel is suspended and practically the entire world is in lockdown? That makes absolutely no sense.

Cost me $10.50 to fill my tank yesterday

Time to buy.

I guess that Donald will be back to taking credit for lower prices at the pump again.

I bet there are fewer cars on the roads today than there were in the 60s

Every where is lockdown

Ok...so when everyones strapped for cash, oil is used more hence being more scarce and thus extremely expensive. When theres hardly any demand for oil , and its plentiful its cheap? Sounds like weve been took for a ride...

At least Mother Earth is getting a chance to breath for a micro second before our elected super brains go about destroying it again in the name of Jobs & of course PROFIT.

Nice to see the investment our government made from our taxes, to invade Libya and iraq, is paying off

This is not just a little problem, we are facing multiple serious financial problems
