LONDON—Oil benchmark Brent edged lower on Wednesday as concern over a global economic slowdown overshadowed supply cuts announced this week by top crude exporters Saudi Arabia and Russia.
Brent crude was down 16 cents, or 0.2 percent, at $76.09 a barrel by 1045 GMT after falling more than $1 earlier in the session. The benchmark closed with a $1.60 gain on Tuesday.
