OIL PRICES HIGHER—AGAIN

Rising prices and the ongoing do-loop (see yesterday's blog on energy commodities) afford another opportunity for this observation: The only real solution is a REAL energy commodities market, with a variety of viable options from which to choose. Not a variety of higher and lower grade oils, not a variety of greater and lesser polluting carbon products, but a real variety of energy commodities, each with a set of costs and benefits.

Right now, what we really have is oil, gas for some things in some places, coal when necessary, a little nuclear and a bunch of experiments. When those experiments become commodities, the market WILL respond.

Logical conclusion:
EXPERIMENT LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT! (Your kids’ lives DO!)

This editorial offers reasonable predicitons (and neat charts) about the long term oil outlook:

However, it is our experience that the right opinion is the opinion of market participants. So what are they saying? The only way to know is do a study of prices. Lets not waste any time and look at the charts to get the proper perspective.
