Brent Crude Oil fell 1.03% to $93.65 a barrel during Thursday morning trade, extending losses to a fourth consecutive session. Both major benchmarks tumbled more than 8% in the previous session to settle at their lowest levels since August 31. The selloff follows political shifts in the United States, where the Republican Party suffered losses in congressional elections.
