Who is currently short oil?
I am very strongly considering it. I'll post my exact entry data for all to see if I go for it.
The fact that oil was not up significantly on Friday on the Israel-Iran issue, nor today, on the Nigeria and North Sea issues....I think this long trade is running out of steam.
Inventory data this week is going to be particularly interesting.
All forces are uniting against oil bulls - Democrats, Republicans, most industries...
...and voters are mad as hell and November is only 5 months away!!!
If it's really due to speculation as Saudi has argued. I suspect that the real speculator is the OPEC themselves. They were playing with the output since oil were trading around $60.
