WTI Crude Tumbles To $45 Handle

Tyler Durden's picture




 

With Saudi's short-changing contractors, record inventoriers in US and Saudi, and looming OPEC meetings, it appears the biggest marginal driver of crude price (for now) is China. After Friday's algo-driven exuberance, China's worst GDP print in 6 years and weak industrial production have prompted weakness in the energy complex (China SPR build aside), pushing WTI back to a $45 handle once again...

It will go down.  Until it doesn't.  When Iran is in control of Basra, lets talk about oil prices.

Interesting to see if this Saudi experiment helps or hurts them.   Seems it could go either way and quickly.    Russia, with their presence, is waiting and will make whatever move is necessary.

So what if there was total peace in the ME and oil flowed freely from all (including Iran, Iraq, Libya and the ususal suppliers)?

All the big players have spent the last few decades creating and supporting the radical nut cases and now that everybody hates everybody, we've created critical mass for the mother of all meltdowns. The end will be awesome in a doomsday kind of way......

Demand slumping and Iran pushing supply on the market.

Good way to kill the Saudis. They are already having troubles.
