Claim 3: “Meanwhile, the price of WTI crude oil futures for September delivery rose by 2.5%, to $77.1 per barrel.”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
While there are search results for WTI crude oil, none of them confirm the specific claim that September delivery rose by 2.5% to $77.1 per barrel. One source mentions September WTI at $78.08, which contradicts the $77.1 figure, but it does not provide the percentage change or the specific context to fully verify or disprove the claim as a historical event.
