Copper is a leading economic indicator, so is oil. So, anyone that thinks oil plunging to lower lows is good, well its not! You might be happy when you put fuel in your vehicle, but in reality, it means the economy is going down the dumpster, or Wallstreet is predicting so.
Exploration, discovery, and existing oil producing wells have a "very" limited amount of storage capacity "Above ground". It does not matter how much oil they discover, they aren't going to pull it out of the ground till it is needed, and till it is "Profitable"...
Last, I think some need to understand oil a little better. Oil is the MOST manipulated commodity on the face of the earth!
No one that buys oil futures can actually take possession of the product because it is a hazardous material. Oil futures can only be bought and sold with the intention of buying at a lower price, and selling at a higher price, with the exception of mass users fuel that use futures for hedging fuel prices, transportation co's, air line co's, ect. I will step off my soap box! You guys can go back to 5w20 vs 5w30...lol, j/k
