Oil prices have dipped below $100 for the first time since mid-March, causing stocks associated with the sector to fall.
Brent crude oil fell 4.36% to $98.30, while WTI (West Texas Intermediary) fell 4.22% to $94.11. Crude prices have been on an unprecedented rally since February, when Russia invaded Ukraine, pushing prices to levels unseen since 2014.
