> Where does your short term reserves claim come from? Genuinely interested.
Familial experience in one of the major US energy (oil) corporations headquartered in east Texas.
> Regarding 118, this is about probability. Given we're at 96 and backwardated?
The 118 peaks are separated by 4 weeks and the local minima of 92 from a week ago has already risen to almost 98 as of 6/3 close-of-business. This does not support a backwardation trend and, instead, could be reasonably identified as the beginning of another spike.
> What is the probability that we hit 150?
This is a question energy executives must answer. Fortunately, one did:
The price of physical Brent oil cargoes will spike to $150
to $160 per barrel when inventories hit all-time lows in
coming weeks, the executive said. “When the price gets to a
certain level, demand destruction brings it back into
balance,” he said.[0]

- AdieuToLogic 4mo ago> So what do you think the true reason is that the market is so backwardated? It is not. The only way to support a backwardation claim is to ignore the 24 months of pre-war market behavior. If analysis is limited to the last three calendar weeks, then the local minima might be called a backwardation. Problem is, there are no geopolitical, market demand, and/or military indicators to support this point in time being an actual backwardation.
