West Texas Intermediate crude oil settled at $88.76 on September 4, 2026, marking a decline of 2.21% over the prior 24 hours as selling pressure weighed on the commodity during the session.
Despite the daily pullback, the broader trend remained notably positive. WTI posted a gain of 7.42% over the past seven days, suggesting that the single-session dip represents a modest pause within a broader upswing rather than a reversal of direction.
The 30-day performance tells a more striking story. Crude oil has risen 17.37% over the past month, a substantial move that places the commodity significantly above where it traded roughly four weeks ago.
Market capitalization data was not available for WTI crude oil, consistent with how the physically deliverable commodity is typically tracked by price rather than market cap metrics.
