Yes, ~56M bbl more in the market now from the SPR stock. I wonder at what price they bought, or used to buy.

I would go short on the retail bus if I had the cash now.

Bad timing and there is no real need I guess (or "act of god") to justify it.

Doesn't start until 2018 and it's only 5mil/year initially. That's only 13.7kb/day.

OIL VOLATILITY has surged in 2015. WTI has been more volatile than at any time since 2008/9 and before that 1991.

CL is basically tracking ES this morning session.

went up $1 and now it have dropped $1

There seems to be relatively large orders bought at 46.70 but CL still went down with ES as it falls from 2084 to 2076

Mr Kemp chimes in on volatility OCT 30 2015


Quoting 
The chief of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) warned a conference last week the oil market had already experienced 35 "flash events" since the start of the year.

CFTC Chairman Timothy Massad defined flash events as occasions on which prices moved by at least 200 basis points within an hour but returned to within 75 basis points of the starting position within the same hour ("Evolving structure of the U.S. Treasury market" Oct. 21).

The definition, which Massad acknowledged was "somewhat arbitrary", was derived from the significant round-trip move in the price of U.S. Treasury notes and bonds in October 2014.

The large move and retracement in Treasury prices between 0933 ET and 0945 ET on Oct. 15, 2014, had only been exceeded on three times since 1998 ("Joint Staff Report on the U.S. Treasury Market," July 2015).

Various tid bits in the article


Quoting 
OPEC oil ministers meet on Dec. 4 to decide whether to extend the strategy of allowing prices to fall to slow higher-cost rival supply. Since November 2014, when the group adopted that policy, OPEC production has risen but prices have deepened their collapse, hurting oil revenue.

The report sees only a gentle recovery over the next few years in oil prices LCOc1, which have more than halved to $50 a barrel since June 2014 due to plentiful supply.

OPEC's basket of crude oils is assumed in the report at $55 in 2015 and to rise by $5 a year to reach $80 by 2020.
