pondering ‘what if’ lower oil prices

A call that I’m not hearing much about it for lower #oil prices.

My historical posts have called for WTI Crude to around an initial visit to $64, and failing that $46-$48.

I think the probability for the latter is gaining.

Today, WTI Crude is $69.40.

A $46 price in WTI #Crude correlate with lower Nat Gas prices and the share prices of related petro/hydro chemical companies.

As an example, that may translate to seeing the trading of stock prices in companies such as #Woodside (WDS.AX) at A$19, #BP at 333p and #Occidental (OXY.N) <US$38.

Knowing when you’re pushing oil barrels uphill

The study below shows the percentage that the WTI Crude Oil price was trading above its 200 week moving average.

When combined with my other studies and metrics, (albeit I couldn’t predict this week’s 10% decline) the probability of the oil price embarking on an extended advance was waning.

More so (subjectively observed), when the financial media noise increased surrounding the various analysts saying $100 was inevitable.

This coincides with my note written 2 weeks earlier.

The high was $95, it is now $82, may see you at $73.10.

Better yet, we may see much cheaper shares in energy companies.
