Exxon alternative crossword clue
6 Down · WSJ Crossword, June 10, 2026 · 5 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Exxon alternative” is AMOCO. It appears as 6 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 10, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “A House Divided” by Peter A. Collins, and it fills 5 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 7 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with A and ends with O, and contains 3 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
