Jim, the most potent arrow in the quiver of the oil bulls at the moment is the possibility of further dollar weakness. Then we get into this wierd situation where the world is oversupplied with crude and yet the US dollar price goes up. I'll leave it to you to work out the investment implications.

I do not ascribe to the idea of massive dollar devaluation, and if you look at what the foreign holders of US debt are doing (not what they are saying), they are actually increasing dollar purchases.

Yet I partially wonder if a weaker currency is one of the desired outcomes of quantitative easing.
