Eight OPEC+ countries unexpectedly agreed on Thursday to advance their plan to phase out oil output cuts by increasing output by 411,000 barrels per day in May, a decision that prompted oil prices to extend earlier sharp losses.

Oil plunged the most since July 2022 after suffering a twin hit from President Donald Trump’s tariffs and an OPEC+ decision to increase output faster than previously announced.

Imports of oil, gas and refined products were exempted from U.S. President Donald Trump’s sweeping new tariffs, the White House said on Wednesday.

The levies were seen as more aggressive than expected, with a 10 percent duty on all exports to the US and even higher rates on about 60 nations.

The pound was little changed on Wednesday, with global markets in limbo ahead of U.S. President Donald Trump's long-awaited tariff announcement later in the day, which has the potential to further cool the already tepid UK economy.

Crude oil prices were down more than $5 and product futures were sharply lower by midday Thursday, hit by a decision by OPEC and its allies to increase supply in May and energy demand fears a day after President Trump announced sweeping new tariffs.

Oil prices fell on Thursday as the decision by the OPEC+ group to speed up unwinding of oil output cuts in May compounded already heavy losses following U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement of sweeping new import tariffs.

Oil prices fell to negative territory after rising by a dollar in post-settlement trade on Wednesday as U.S. President Donald Trump announced reciprocal tariffs on trading partners, stoking concerns that a global trade war may dampen demand for crude.
