Oil prices still low

As reported some days before, the oil price decrease constantly. On 09 May the barrel was by $99.80, but on this week it reached almost $98 per barrel. According to EIA the prices of oil and gasoline will keep decline in the following days. This result is much lower, as the statisticts expected.
Bad news for the providers, good news for the consumers.

The USA had filled their stocks already with more than 3 million barrels. Some see this as a good business manouver to provide energy by a conventional price. On the otherhand, it is a good factor for the american drivers, because that's way the gasoline prices will remain lower during the summertime, when everybody it's on traveling.

A wall of Tankers to Keep Crude Prices at Bay

Saudi Arabia has announced that it is about to send a wall of supertankers towards the US in order to bring down the artificially inflated oil price. Whatever the local political moves of the backstage, a stable and healthy global economy relies on reasonable energy prices -- and the patience is running low. At least we can applaud the maritime wall, even if it's a metaphor, let's hope that more oil infused in the US economy will make it just a bit easier...

Please consider The price of oil  that launched a wall of ships

In a matter of days, Saudi Arabia has hired the largest number of super-tankers in years. When the tankers load their cargo in Ras Tanura, the world’s largest oil terminal, in the next couple of weeks and start a 40-day voyage towards the US Gulf coast, they will deliver a wall of oil with a single aim: to bring prices down.

“This is the first time in several years for [Saudi Arabia] to hit the market with such volume – and in such a short time frame,” says Omar Nokta, a shipping expert at specialist investment bank Dalham Rose & Co.
Last week, Vela, the shipping arm of Saudi Aramco, hired over a few days 11 so-called very large crude oil carriers, each capable of shipping 2m barrels, to deliver to US-based refiners. “In 2011, Vela fixed one VLCC to the US every other month,” Mr Nokta says.

The hiring spree was the most public move by the kingdom in a series of efforts aimed at bringing down oil prices from $125 a barrel towards $100. “They want to bring prices down. That is it,” says a former Western oil official.
Saudi Oil Minister Says "High Oil Prices Unjustified"

Please consider Naimi calls high oil prices ‘unjustified’

Saudi Arabia’s powerful oil minister Ali Naimi sought to cool overheating oil markets on Tuesday, saying high oil prices were “unjustified” and that the kingdom could boost its output by as much as 25 per cent if necessary.
Supply was much more robust than it had been in 2008 when crude rose to $147 a barrel, he said.
As the west’s nuclear stand-off with Iran escalates, oil prices have rallied this month to a post-2008 peak of $128 a barrel with markets bracing for European Union sanctions on Iranian crude that could knock out a chunk of global supply. Jitters have been fuelled by supply outages in Syria, Yemen and South Sudan.

...Christine Lagarde, managing director of the International Monetary Fund, said on Tuesday that rising energy prices had now overtaken Europe’s sovereign debt crisis as the biggest worry for the global economy. Speaking in New Delhi, she said that while the world financial system had strengthened over the past three months, volatile oil prices would have “serious consequences”.

But Mr Naimi insisted that supply was “much more firm today than in 2008”, the time of the last big oil increase. Saudi Arabia had 2.5m b/d of additional production capacity, which it could bring online if necessary.
Saudi Arabia is likely to be producing about 9.9m b/d of oil in April and exporting roughly 7.5m-8m b/d of that, he said. Asked if the kingdom could ease prices by exporting more oil, he said customers were not asking for additional crude. “We are ready and willing to put more oil on the market, but you need a buyer,” he said.

Oil Investment- The Market Runs out of Pavement

Remember those mid summer rantings about conservative investments as opposed to high growth stocks? The sane advice is for you to put your money where they can earn you a more stable and consistent value over a longer period of time. A slow gowth is not to be feared, given it is based on financially sound stocks. Industries at the base of the foodchain constitute a point of interest here. Raw materials, including crude oil and natural gas, along with coal and nuclear fuel, are the primary pillars of the global economy. Take out the energy created by these industries and the ecosystem above will suddenly cease to exist.

"Investing Oil Investment gurus tell you to put some of your money into "high growth stocks" (read not a hair's breath chance in hell of ever making as much as a rusty dime). Part of it should be in "conservative stocks" (read stocks with familiar names priced about equal to a custom Bentley). Some in "bonds" (read an investment whose price doesn't fluctuate so they'll feel safe, but grows in value about as fast as a seventy-five-year-old midget). To recommend spreading money out in this manner, the guru has to believe that some of these "investments" are better than others. So why not put everything in that one? More "irrational money thinking." And also he can't have much knowledge about what he's doing if he can't tell a client which area is the right one to be in." ( Avoid the "Herd Mentality" When Investing Your Money )

Makes sense, on the long run, to act like a wise tortoise rather than a loose rabbit. But how long is the long run after all?
Some think that the surge in the market is the catalyst of a new bull market. The fallacy here is trusting the “accommodations being made” in Europe hence yet another crisis averted... as it always has been.
"For two weeks this past August, we saw the powerful downside of fear, as a year-and-a-half of gains were completely wiped out. Now, after the recovery, the markets are waffling between nearly positive and negative returns."
"One day they’re down 200, the next day up 200, it all depends upon the last thirty minutes of the trading day."
"The reality of Europe, the BRICs, and even the U.S. itself is they’re all running out of time. Contraction, recession, and outright collapse is on the horizon."

"The proverbial “kicking the can down the road” has unfortunately run out of pavement. As decisions are made and actions are implemented, someone has to lose."

( comments and excerpts from Christmas or Coal? - by Bill Tatro, on finance.townhall.com )

Unfortunately, and expectedly, it looks like we're about to face a new paradigm in the near future. The markets, even the conservative stocks area, became more volatile. There's a set of factors, other than the market, or supply and demand, that contribute to this process of instability. What if you exit the investing game now, before you lose everything, and stay happy with the cash (which, as said, is anyway a loser)? Remember that Obama, and Sarkozy of France, are fond to print even more euros and dollars. Inflation is the cutest short-time solution for politicians around the pond. Gold and silver went way up then drastically plunged. It will be interesting to see which investment will do good through the regular market storms.
