Brent crude under $75 for first time since start of Mideast war

The price of Brent North Sea crude, the international benchmark, extended losses Wednesday to trade under $75 a barrel for the first time since the start of the Middle East war.

Brent slid 3.1 percent to $74.73, extending its fall since the United States and Iran last week struck a deal to end the conflict that began on February 28.
