I think $50/barrel is likely but that would drive us back into recession I would think. And this recovery is wobbly.

>>Does anyone see a scenario where oil DOESN'T go to at least $50/bbl?

Futures speculators get nailed. Last time I looked a couple years back new oil costs $6 per barrel to find and produce. What ever happened with that huge Caspian Sea find in Russia?

Good call. Did you think it would take this long, though? (No)

Does anyone know a proxy for buying oil futures? A fund of some sort perhaps?

Check out PEO.

Also, there are the old standby integrated oils, such as COP (which I just bought today in a small quantity -- at what will undoubtedly turn out to be the peak of the market -- at least I get some dividends to bail me out, and I can always dollar cost average on the way down as the recession takes the wind out of oil prices . . . .).
