Marketwatch tells MHProNews that crude-oil futures settled sharply lower Thursday, erasing a surge higher that followed the Swiss National Bank’s decision to scrap a cap on its currency, as the U.S. dollar regained its footing and investors focused on OPEC’s downgraded forecast of demand for its crude.
Oil saw its biggest one-day jump since 2012 on Wednesday, in a move tied in part to options expiration activity, but it gave back most of that gain Thursday and remains near six-year lows.
The big news today occurred when Switzerland stunned markets by allowing its currency to trade freely against the euro.The Swiss National Bank said it was removing a cap of 1.2 Swiss francs to the euro, introduced during the Eurozone crisis in 2011 when a flood of cash sought refuge in the traditional safe haven. The shocking move underscores the turbulent state of the global economy.
