Oil Falls in New York on Concern OPEC Output May Exceed Dem

Businessweek.com -- Crude oil declined for a second day on speculation fuel inventories may remain high as supply from the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries outpaces the recovery in global demand.

Oil fell after Iran’s OPEC governor Mohammad Ali Khatibi said the market may be oversupplied later this year if the group, meeting March 17, fails to comply with output limits. A report today may show industrial production in the U.S., the world’s biggest energy consumer, was little changed in February because of harsh weather, according to a Bloomberg survey of analysts.

“Global demand may be increased gradually this year but there’s plenty of available supply,” said Ken Hasegawa, a commodity derivatives sales manager at broker Newedge in Tokyo.

Too bad prices don't fall for more than one or two days in a given week.

Too bad that gas prices don't decline when oil prices do. It seems like they go up when oil does.

Even Bloomburg, which a number of posters do not like, reported "Oil slipped 0.3 percent last week even as hedge-fund managers and other large speculators increased their bets on rising prices for a fourth week." The futures market have changes from a risk management tool to a gambling house.

Iran knows oil will cripple us, we need to get away from OPEC and drill for our own resources until we come up with a great alternative.

Until we research and develop alternative fuel sources, Big Oil knows, ultimately, they have us by the you-know-what.

When controls are put in place to curb the Speculator's greed. Then and only then will you see the price of crude oil go down and stay there.

What?

OPEC members may exceed their quotas? Noooooo, not like they have been doing for over 35 years? Why, they said they changed their ways and would do what it takes to keep oil expensive.

Some things just never change.

Gasoline is so overpriced given the price of crude as well as the lack of demand for the product!

One day up, one day down OPEC, big oil, refiners and those speculators will continue to ‘stick it’ to the consumer somehow, someway. Then big oil and the refiners create false shortages by producing less fuel and raising fuel prices at the pump.

I like to see OPEC increasing supply when the demand is low. That should at least stabilize prices.

Another article to entice more inexperienced speculator/manipulators into the market. Suckers they will be, as the experienced speculator/manipulators use them to make money, just like experienced poker players clean out the pockets of the inexperienced players.

OPEC sees price falling because of oversupply in the market and yet the previous article states that the price of crude is on the rise.

Once again, oil price is independent of supply/demand. With excess supply and diminished demand prices should be tumbling.

With luck this report will cause the speculators in the other report to panic and sell short. If they loose money on oil speculation It would be GOOD
