Here is the Bloomberg segment from earlier today with Jim Grant
an hour long segment - some of the best TV I have seen in ages

edit - (bastards, the clip is only one minute of the segment)
GS has been long oil for a year, and advised clients to buy Crude, Sell Nat Gas and short the Dollar. This trade will have to unwind as time moves forward.
Those trades would "unwind" as the technicals reveal a change in trend.
What oil?
Is oil following fundamentals the past week? Is Goldman a "fundamental issue"? If not why did oil fall with the other risk assets with Goldman news? More likely Goldman and a few other investment banks went heavily long oil again recently as offshore storage costs cam down again the last 4 or 5 weeks. That would explain the sudden rise to $87 from $78 in early March. And why did it not rise yesterday? Maybe because China plinged 4% yesterday, and Copper and Gold did not fully recover either. Just a guess.
