To Embargo

Posted by Phil Flynn I PFG Best Research • Friday, January 13. 2012 • Category: Rohstoffe
The Energy Report for Friday January 13th 2012

To embargo or not to embargo, that is indeed the question. While the market got a boost on reports that European refiners were meeting with Saudi Arabia and other oil producers and securing an alternative to Iranian oil supply, apparently some in the EU did not like the answers that they heard. An overbought oil market seemingly got a reason to sell-off on a Bloomberg report that the European Union embargo on ...

The Energy Report for Thursday, January 12th 2012

Forget all that talk of weak demand, the dynamics of the oil market are a bit more complex.

The world is coming to grips with the fact that most of the world will not be buying Iranian oil and how they react may be the determining factor in the availability of high quality light sweet crude. Also, the Energy Information Agency oil inventory report may have given oil bears a false sense of security.

The Energy Report Wednesday January 11th 2012

What Is The Most Dangerous Job in Iran? Well these days it is probably being a nuclear scientist. Once again an Iranian Nuclear scientist was blown to smithereens. Now despite what you might think this had nothing to do a nuclear experiment gone bad, no it really has a lot to do with a bomb mysteriously placed below a Peugeot 405. It seems that nuclear scientists in Iran have some pretty cool cars. Reports that a ...

In others words "Go ahead, make my Day". U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said the U.S. ...

The Energy Report for Tuesday, January 3rd 2012

We saw a lot of fireworks this New Year's eve but perhaps the most spectacular were the missiles fired from Iran. Yes Dubai, they even topped you.

As the Untied States moved forward on more sanctions, the Iranians threw a New Year hissy fit celebration. Yet to attribute the entire spike in the petroleum complex to Iran means that you have not been paying attention. Commodities are on a tear as ...

The Energy Report for Friday, December 29th 2011

Should all of Europe's debt be forgot and never brought to mind? Should all the high yields be forgot for days of Auld Lang Syne.

Well it seems late in the session Europe and their problems were forgotten as many commodities staged a late day reversal. Is it possible that we hit the lows on gold, silver and platinum? We have seen those markets get hit hard on the deflationary aspects of the Europe ...

The Energy Report for Wednesday, December 28, 2011

Oil prices rallied as Iran made threats and US oil supplies are likely near a three year low. What a way to get ready to end a year that has already seen incredible turmoil. Iran of course is in pursuit of a nuclear weapon and they really believe that no one would have the guts to try and stop them. Sad part is they are probably right until they made one tactical error. The Iranians are becoming more embolden ...

The Energy Report for Wednesday, December 21, 2011

For Europe this was the Christmas that almost wasn’t. The refusal of ECB Chief Mario Draghi to agree to the concept of a Euro bond killed a commodity and stock rally and had traders worried that European lending would freeze up and Europe would be mired in a deepening recession. Yet Mario Draghi hopes his latest move will reinvigorate the European banks and will save the Eurozone just in time for Christmas. ...
