Hoping for a pop in techs and a pullback in oil service next week. Very much want to shift my tech holdings back into producers and land O/S. 800Kbbl is decent. Can they produce it and, more importantly, is there shipping capacity to deliver it? Assuming average tanker capacity is 2 Million bbl, and round trip is 8 weeks, we need (800,000/2,000,000)(87) = 23 tankers that are currently not delivering oil/products. 23 additional tankers, and big ones at that. Are they available? My money says not a snowball's chance in Hades.

Diana G. re DEMAND, Yes I am somewhat concerned with that variable as well. IMO with OPEC producing at capacity, demand becomes THE key variable. Yes, I'm worried about that too. Still I am getting some really strange signals from the market place here. Signals that taken together indicate to me that the markets are anticipating, not recession, but recovery. It is counter-intuitive, it makes no sense, and is utterly impossible, but still these signals cannot be denied at this point. They are saying recession is NOT just around the corner. Interest rate sensitive: finance.yahoo.com finance.yahoo.com finance.yahoo.com Economically Sensitive: finance.yahoo.com Economically Sensitive: futures.tradingcharts.com futures.tradingcharts.com futures.tradingcharts.com All suggest to me not an ending, but a beginning of a new economic cycle. If it is it will ultimately be a highly inflationary one. Perhaps you could give me a simple explanation to this phenomenon? A simple answer from a not so simple girl would be refreshing.
