LONDON—Oil prices fell on Thursday, ending three sessions of gains, as movement restrictions worldwide to contain the CCP virus, destroyed demand and overshadowed expectations that a U.S. $2 trillion emergency stimulus will bolster economic activity.
Brent crude futures fell $1.04, or 3.75%, to $26.35 a barrel. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures fell 94 cents, or 3.8%, to $23.55 a barrel. Both contracts are down about 60% this year.
