Two New Crude Oil Policies And China Opening Up -- November 11, 2022

Numbers rounded, and some numbers "cherry-picked" to make things look slightly better than they might actually be. But, go ahead, fact-check this stuff. It should make your head spin.

OXY:

  • up 5.5% today and was actually higher at one time; up $3.88 (ditto)
  • over last two days: from $67.60 to $74.29 = up almost 10% over two days
  • I heard Warren Buffett may drink an extra can of Diet Coke today and will stop by McDonald's on the way home.

Over two days:

  • COP: from $125 to $135
  • CVX: from $178 to $187
  • PSX: from $104 to $112
  • DVN: from $67 to $72

One day, today:

  • COP: up 4%; up $5.13.
  • CVX: up 3%; up $5.45.
  • PSX: up 4.88%; p $5.18.
  • DVN: up 4.15%; up $2.85; and was much higher at the top before profit-taking;

Twitter is quiet; nothing over at CNBC; Urkraine rout; could war be over; steep sanctions on Russia from December 5, 2022? What's going on? As noted Twitter is quiet, as is CNBC and had I not checked, I would have completely missed what's going on. 

The Dow is up only 74 points; at 0.22%, flat; certainly not reflecting what "oils" did.

Other indices up a bit more (S&P 500 up 1% and NASDAQ up 2%) but nothing to indicate the blowout (in a positive sense) the oils are showing.

This is quite incredible.

Only explanation: this time China is serious -- will finally "open up."

And, of course, the two major explicit oil policies by the largest oil producers in the world:

  • Saudi Arabia: "Saudi first."
  • the US: "no more drilling.

Maybe more on this later, but oil bulls are having an incredible two days.

Now that the midterm elections are over, the fog will clear.

  • WTI back to $90, on its way too $100
  • NYMEX gas price over $6
  • winter is coming
  • US gas drilling faces Biden's "no more drilling" policy
  • buy what you like
  • favorite oil producer: Whitecap Resources: clean Canadian oil.
  • favorite gas producer: NuVista: Wapiti Montney.
  • no recommendation, not an investment site.

North Texas:

  • 36°F tonight; colder on Sunday -- and it's only mid-November
