Crude Oil: Price Outlook, Fracking

In my view, crude oil is making a bottom. It's a complicated bottom. We will look back someday and say, in 2014-2018 crude oil made its bottom. Known reserves of oil everywhere continue to decline except for fracking but the fracking bubble burst a few years ago. 

Now people know that fracking is not magic and that people can lose money in fracking. (Nymex Crude Oil futures, Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLE), Exxon Mobil (XOM), Marathon Oil (MRO), ConocoPhillips (COP))

Commodities: Crude Oil

Crude oil is in the process of making a complicated bottom. We will look back some day and we will say, "In 2015, 2016 or 2017 energy made its bottom and then prices moved higher." (Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLE), United States Oil Fund LP ETF (USO), Nymex Crude Oil futures)

The Fundamentals For Crude Oil Are Improving

The fundamentals for crude oil are improving. For example, Saudi Arabia has not found any major oil field for a long time. Other big oil producers like Iraq, Iran or Nigeria have not found a lot of oil too. Only the fracking companies have found a lot of oil but they cannot make any money if oil prices are low.

Crude Oil Outlook: A Trading Range With Some Upside

I own some crude oil but I am not a good market timer or a good trader. My view is that we are in a complicated bottoming process that could last a couple of years. So far the trading range has been between 30 and 40 dollars a barrel, it will likely be a little bit more on the upside of that range. 60 dollars a barrel is not an unusual price for crude oil.

Crude Oil: The Market Is Smarter Than OPEC

The question is that the market is way smarter than oil producers, smarter than OPEC. So, I do not really pay much attention to OPEC meetings. They can sit down and have meetings that will go on for days and nights but there are a lot of oil producers in the world that are not on the agreement to cut production.

The OPEC Cut: What's Ahead For Oil?

The OPEC cut announcement is not surprising to me but the key is to wait and see if they really do it. OPEC has made these kind of announcements for decades. Most have not really worked but this one is making crude oil go up and it will probably continue to do so. But what really matter is that crude oil fundamentals are continuing to improve.

Crude Oil : Supply Is Down, Prices Will Go Up Again

Russia wants to cut oil production but I would not do that. I would let the market sort it out.

It may take some time but the reality is that the high cost producers (framers, deep water drilling, oil sands) are stopping exploration and going out of business.

Prices are forcing the high cost explorations to stop operating and what this means is that eventually there will be no oil supply, and the price goes up again. (Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLE), Marathon Oil (MRO), Exxon Mobil (XOM), United States Oil Fund LP ETF (USO))

Crude Oil Prices Will Be Much Higher In 2 or 3 Years

Oil prices hit bottom a few months ago and now they are going up again because low prices bring high prices. Producers cut production, others go bankrupt and people consume more so prices go back up. Prices will be much higher in 2 or 3 years. (United States Oil Fund LP ETF (USO), Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLE), Nymex Crude Oil futures, Exxon Mobil (XOM), Marathon Oil (MRO))

Crude Oil: Production Is Being Cut

It is happening but many oil wells you just cannot close them down, in the North Sea for instance, many Russian oil fields you just cannot close them down. First and second of all, many people do not believe when prices are down, it takes a while for it to stink in that they really want to close their fields.

But its happening, its happening now, massive cuts are being made in exploration budgets, it is happening.
