February 28, 2020: Oil prices dived four percent on Friday to trade at their lowest levels for more than a year, as the coronavirus crisis continued to spark panic over crude demand.

In morning deals, Brent oil for April delivery sank as low as $50.05 per barrel, while New York's WTI crude for the same month tumbled to a trough of $44.95.
