US crude oil prices fell sharply below $93 per barrel as markets reacted to the results of the US midterm elections, extending a recent decline in global oil prices.
\n\nOil prices have dropped around 12% over the past four days, reflecting changing investor sentiment following the election results. The sharp decline comes amid broader market reassessments of the political and economic outlook in the US.
