CGTN

Oil prices plunged more than 5 percent Wednesday as traders grow increasingly worried that demand for the commodity will take a hit from a possible recession caused by a sharp hike in interest rates aimed at reining in inflation.

West Texas Intermediate lost 5.09 percent to $103.92 a barrel, while Brent was off 4.70 percent at $109.26.
