We recently published a list of Energy Stocks that are Losing This Week. In this article, we are going to take a look at where EON Resources Inc. (NYSEAMERICAN:EONR) stands against other energy stocks that are crashing this week.
After an encouraging start to the year, the energy industry is now trailing just behind the general market. As of the writing of this piece, the overall energy sector has fallen by 8.31% since the beginning of 2025, against a decline of 8.04% by the wider market. The oil and gas industry has been hit particularly hard, sliding by 20.76% since the beginning of the year.
The major reason behind this fall is the decline in the global prices of oil, which have plunged by a little over 15% since the beginning of 2025. The prospects of an economic slowdown following a global tariff war, coupled with the recent decision by OPEC+ to increase supply in May, have weighed down the global crude price. Moreover, the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) revealed in its latest report that it now projects global oil consumption to increase by 900,000 b/d in 2025 and 1 million b/d in 2026, down by 400,000 b/d and 100,000 b/d, respectively, from its initial forecast in March. The EIA has also forecasted the WTI price to average $63.88 per barrel this year before dropping to an average of $57.48 in 2026. The sharp decline in prices and the expected slowdown in demand growth have taken a toll on oil stocks and shaken investor confidence.
