@gbrew24 it’s cheap as they begin to realize that they need to reprice to compete with the spot bbls which were sold ahead of them. And in good fashion, place a positive spin on it.
@SpartaFreight Hey Mike, love ur content - keep up the good work. Just wanted to point out that the EFS depreciation actually makes the AG grades less competitive for arbitrage out, a result of the bbls carving in prior sessions. Stronger Dubai, weaker Brent.
@RedDogT3 Hi Scott, great points to be made, but i have a question - in Feb RSP was leading the way to new all-time highs. But in this v-shaped recovery, RSP is currently lagging. do you read into that in any way?
@chigrl@DiMartinoBooth@business WTI is not over brent. April WTI is over May brent, but when looking at the natural same-month WTI-Brent curve, brent remains higher than WTI by $5 or so. April brent is valued by the physical CFD curve at this point, which is showing extreme backwardation vs. May brent
@joshyoung Josh has your view changed with flat price 1% higher today than pre-attack? And does the margin rationalization via gas cracks remain a concern for the medium term?
@The_Real_Fly Another version:
No one was short Oil, w/ rates on the rise the spec longs began to take profit, the gamma picks up, market makers began to hedge faster, those late to the party joined the selling as weakening refining margins cast doubts on consumer demand.
