Crude Oil Prices - October 13
Posted: Mon Oct 13, 2014 1:58 pm
Dan Dicker, an oil analyst, thinks we are very close to the low for oil prices. He does say there is a lot of "panic" selling, which could cause it to move below $85/bbl (where he thinks the fundamentals show strong support). Watch video at link below.

He recommends EOG and XEC at the end.
In very early trading (4AM ET) WTI dipped close to $84.10/bbl. Around 11AM it started to move up. A close above $85 would be a good sign.
I've heard that a lot of hedge funds are dumping oil contracts and I've heard that E&P companies are laying on a lot more hedges. Both put pressure on the price. There are a lot of traders holding short positions. As we move closer to the end of October, the shorts must cover. That should help. I agree with Mr. Dicker that OPEC will cut production at their November meeting.
