Just thinking out loud, nothing solid to base this upon ... The US is obviously a very large importer of crude, so for every barrel of crude we do export, we will have to import an additional barrel somewhere else. I suspect that there are certain grades of crude in certain geographical locations that are surplus. These will now get exported and the places we need the crude will import more. The price of the crudes exported will obviously increase. I guess this means that the system will become more efficient than it currently is, as refineries get to optimize their crude runs further, rather than just have to use what is available locally.
Good setup, but would like to warn that this is very risky for day trade keep positions on inventories release, if you are on the wrong side it can jump your stop and you loose more than you can think.
DJ Genscape Reports Still-Rising Crude in Cushing -- Market Talk
10:37 ET - Can the oil industry build storage tanks fast enough to meet demand? That's the question as the latest
twice-weekly report from Genscape shows crude inventories at the commercial storage hub in Cushing, Okla., hit 63.7M
barrel Friday, up 1.6M from a week earlier, according to a market participant who saw the report. Cushing has been
building new tanks all year and had working capacity of 73M barrel as of September, versus 71M in March and 48M in
2011. ([email protected])
In my experience, when the large trading houses call for extreme lows after a large run down it is a great signal to start looking for buys.
Goldman was reiterating a call for sub $30 cl this week.
US oil inventory down mainly because imports were down.
I see that the Houston shipping channel was closed partially on 12/14/15. That may have affected imports unloading but it doesn't look like the shutdown was very long.
Any other ideas on why imports were down? I do see in past years that imports drop slightly in Dec. Probably to keep inventories low for year end tax purposes.
