Week 13: March 25, 2018 -- March 31, 2018

WTI closes the week right about at $65. A pretty good week for WTI and Mike Filloon predicts WTI could hit $70 by June, 2018 -- he feels $75 is a 'bridge too far." The US economy is surging though one might not be able to see it in the headlines; US first time unemployment claims at 45-year low; final GDP reading for 4Q17: 2.9%, much better than the prior reading of 2.5%.

Concho is now the biggest operator in the Permian.
