They should be uneasy , the average middle class working family is running out of disposable income extremely fast due to run away inflation they won’t admit already happened Reply With Quote

    Fair enough. As am I... But,
    does the selling start before the peak?
    Is this the peak?
    Is the consumer prepared to suffer yet further?
    Does government inflict yet more pain upon this industry in the short term? Reply With Quote

    Bloomberg has a bear market based ETF that is not getting much interest yet.
    Might be worth watching if pump prices start to tank.

    Not keen on Bloomberg as they are leading the ESG movement. Reply With Quote

    You're probably not wrong. In fact this price action it's exactly what will sooner than later drive the price to those higher levels. There is still a fundamental shortage of investment and, let alone upcoming supply, relative to the inelastic portion of demand.
    The lack of investment has been going on for so many years, that this short blip of improved prices did not come close to repairing the damage. At these price levels, we are back to discouraging investment while simultaneously encouraging consumption, when exactly the opposite needs to be occurring to bring long-term supply and demand back into balance.

    Nov 21, 2022 | 13:26 16 I don’t think you’re wrong yet Landdownunder you just need a little bit time. With Putin and company threatening Europe there will be a oil premium until Russia’s threats are put to rest. I’m still heavily invested in oil and gas stocks, my hedge against petroleum products. Not planning on trimming my oil stocks until this conflict is over. Reply With Quote

    U.S. inventories appear recovering on falling oil demand as recession deepens. If $75 WTI oil breaks, next stop could be mid $60 per barrel range (IMO). And if OPEC starts infighting on production quotes, oil prices could go a whole lot lower yet. Resistance @ $85 per barrel on bounce?

    U.S. bank analyst estimates, pretty much garbage (in my view) . . . . Reply With Quote

    My target has been 72-74 since the end of September.

    Will reassess if that level is reached. Reply With Quote

    Short-term. But what if they succeed? What does that do for demand long-term? There are a lot of rumors floating around that part of the reason for the lockdowns in China is that the cupboards are bare, so this is a way to stifle demand. What if that turns out to be true and gets revealed throughout this process? Reply With Quote

    They say that the lumber market is typically one year forward looking. The market is expecting housing starts and the economy to be on the way up within a year.
    Apparently has a good track record. Reply With Quote
