Maurice - re : Incidentally, I see the Kuwaitis were also talking about $5 per barrel if OPEC can't maintain production reduction. I don't see how they can maintain production cuts while Saudi Arabia and other low cost producers are going broke. Saudi Arabia can make a lot of money by producing heaps at $5 per barrel. NZ fields would go bust quite quickly. So would North Sea, other offshore fields and a lot of onshore fields too.

Having watched a lot of commodity markets for a long time, I would like to add a thought.

Since no one (meaning oil companies, oil service companies, and shareholders (both institutional and individual)) has been making a hysterical spectacle of "Oh my God ! Look at the price level of oil ! What is this going to lead to ? etc. etc." -- I would predict that the price decline in oil is not yet over.

(But, it may be over in (cash) live hog prices).

Jon.
