Hello Jay. Saudi Arabia knows an opportunity when they see it. Production capacity to be boosted 30% over a couple of years.

That means it's time to short oil. Oil is over the top in price. It's more expensive than any number of alternatives and has nowhere to go but down.

Okay, it's true that it could go up quite a lot yet before going down, but that's just a volatility issue. That Hubbert's peak stuff is irrelevant to life in the fast lane. So what if oil production peaks? There's plenty of other stuff to keep things moving, even if oil production does start declining.
