Day after day we are told that the plunge in oil prices (just like the collapse in The Baltic Dry freight index) is a “supply” issue… it’s transitory and global demand is doing fine thank you very much. Sadly, as everyone really knows deep down inside their Keynesian hearts, this is utter crap and as Barclays shows the shocking 18% YoY crash in distillates “demand” – something that has never happened outside of a recession – blows the one-sided argument of the energy complex out of the water.
Still gonna claim “it’s a supply issue?”
