All the bluster about future production cuts could not compete with an avalanche of bad news about the global economy. Oil closed out the week at $57.04 a barrel.
The weekly US oil stocks report shows US gasoline consumption Full Story

Recent price declines, in our opinion, have been the
result of players exiting the marketplace, and if this
continues to occur, there could be further downside,
but we still believe downside is limited with
winter around the corner.

Washington insiders are well aware of oil depletion. It has been the subject of at least four reports funded by the United States Government, more than a dozen books, and multiple independent reports. Congress has taken testimony.

The NHC has started reporting on Tropical Storm Paloma, currently a small tropical storm with 45 mph winds some 250 miles south-southwest of Grand Cayman. Paloma is expected to turn to the northeast and strengthen to at least Category 1 status in the next 24 hours. Paloma is likely to impact the Caymans on Saturday (potentially as a Cat 2 hurricane) before hitting Cuba late on Sunday (as a Cat 2 or even a Cat 3 hurricane). After Cuba, Paloma is expected to pass through the Bahamas as a much weakened system before dissipating in the Atlantic well south of Bermuda. Full Story
