Tell Me Somethin’ Good

According to Oil & Gas 360’s article originally from CNBC entitled, Oil prices may now be at a bottom after historic OPEC deal, US energy secretary says, “[o]il prices are down more than 55% year-to-date, having experienced the worst price plunges in nearly two decades in the face of record supply, disappearing storage space and global demand eviscerated by coronavirus lockdowns around the world.”
