Oil price jumps as Opec keeps output steady - BBC News
Sent from my SM-N9005 using TapatalkOil prices have hit a four-year high of over $81 a barrel after Saudi Arabia and Russia rejected calls by Donald Trump to increase production.
Brent crude hit its highest level since November 2014 at $81.16 a barrel, up 3% on the day.
what's scary now is hedge funds are net long Brent
VERY NET LONG
from $79.80 to $81 in 12 hours
this is getting scary
hope we don't see those 3 to 5 dollar spikes per day like before
Oil noob here. But why is it that US shale is not making an impact anymore?

Even US shale cannot make up the loss of 2 million barrels from the market, courtesy of Trump-Israel's Iran oil ban.
US oil producers battle to meet Iran shortfall

and not only that
the price of shale oil produced in the Permian basin is trading at a 10 to 15 dollar discount to WTI
coz shale oil producers are pumping out so much oil they're running out of storage space and pipelines cannot transport the oil out fast enough

If Dubail Crude PLATTS remain in US$ 80 territory for 3 consecutive months, the additional taxes on crude from TRAIN 2 will not push through next year...

Nope, the law only calls for the suspension of additional fuel taxes for TRAIN 2 next year...
Revenue Regulation No. 2-2018, which revised tax rates based on the TRAIN Act, states that during the period covering 2018-2020, then scheduled increase in excise on fuel will be suspended when the average Dubai crude oil based on the Mean of Platts Singapore (MOPS) for three months prior to the scheduled increase of the month reaches or exceeds $80 per barrel.

Brent Breaks $8: The Oil Bull Thesis Enters The 7th Inning | Seeking Alpha
In a special report we published to subscribers, we believe the current oil bull market we are seeing is broken down into two phases. The first tier is what we are seeing right now, and the second tier will come when the massive upstream capex reductions turn into a supply shortage after 2020.
In essence, we believe the current oil bull market we are seeing right now will end with global oil demand destruction resulting in elevated oil prices. We believe the price at which demand destruction starts to take place is ~$120/bbl. This will then send the global economy into a recession, which would cause oil and risk assets to sell-off materially.

EM economies are already struggling as local currencies depreciate against the dollar (dollar denominated debt getting more expensive to pay back)
crude oil getting more expensive in dollar terms adding to the burden
this is getting serious for PH -- heavily dependent on imported oil and refined products
so Trump speaks at the UN General Assembly
complains about OPEC
hey dummy
if it wasn't for your Iran sanctions oil prices wouldn't be this high in the first place
-
anyway, the oil market has become immune to Trump's attacks on OPEC
