据道琼斯3月9日消息,在美国原油库存升幅大于预期令人怀疑欧佩克减产是否足以缓解全球原油库存过剩后,原油期货周四继续下跌,并创下三个月低点。
美国基准原油期货结算价自去年12月7日以来首次跌至每桶50美元以下。
油价两天来的大幅下跌打破了两年多来油价最平静的时期。截至周三约三个月以来油价一直在上下4美元的交易区间内波动。油价突破该区间的同时,原油重新成为市场关注焦点,影响了股市、债市以及大宗商品期货市场。
纽约商业交易所四月交割的美国原油期货结算价下跌1美元,至每桶49.28美元,跌幅2%。
美国能源情报署周三公布,美国原油库存增加820万桶,为连续第九周上升,总商业库存升至5.284亿桶的历史最高水平。接受《华尔街日报》调查的分析师预期库存增加170万桶。

Oil Hits 3-Month Low as U.S. Crude Reserves Swell
By Timothy Puko
Oil prices extended losses Thursday, hitting a three-month low a day after a larger-than-expected buildup in U.S. crude inventories raised doubts over whether OPEC cuts will be enough to sap brimming stores of oil around the world.
The U.S. benchmark settled below $50 a barrel for the first time since Dec. 7.
Two days of a sharp selloff have broken the calmest period for oil prices in more than two years. Oil had been trading in a $4 range for about three months until Wednesday. And as it broke from that range, oil began retaking its spot at the center of the market, impacting stocks and bonds in addition to commodity futures.
U.S. crude for April delivery settled down $1, or 2%, to $49.28 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
The U.S. Energy Information Administration on Wednesday reported an 8.2-million-barrel increase in domestic crude supplies, the ninth consecutive weekly climb, lifting total commercial inventories to a record weekly level of 528.4 million barrels. Analysts surveyed by The Wall Street Journal had forecast an inventory increase of 1.7 million barrels.
