Cenovus Energy sold off from the open and settled near $32, with sellers in control through the entire session.
A 4.5% decline on a producer of this size strips roughly $2.7 billion in market value in a single session.
The low came in around $31.99 before a modest stabilization late in the day. The $32 level is the immediate line to monitor.
