This suggests that some believe there could be a recovery later in the year,” reports CNBC.

Meanwhile international benchmark, Brent crude, which has already rolled to the June contract, traded 5.6% lower at $26.49 per barrel. The June WTI contract, which expires on May 19, fell about 10% to $22.54 per barrel. The July contract was roughly 5% lower at $28 per barrel,” adds the website.
