This past week there was still a lot of talk -- and it's just talk -- about supply and demand and when oil might re-balance. Here's the most recent IEA assessment. There was also a nice article explaining why Saudi Arabia may have to import natural gas.
US gasoline demand set a record for the "second week in June." It should be noted that US exports gasoline; it's hard to say to what extend gasoline exports are affecting this number.
At the same time, the first new nuclear reactor in the US is about to come on-line; construction began in 1973. The EIA released a study on how expensive wind energy really is.
The Director's Cut for April, 2016, production data came out this week. Here are posts related to the Cut:
