Oil Bulls Get Punished
Oil prices dropped to 4 month lows today, continuing a selloff that began in March and accelerated into early May. Last week NYMEX fell over $6, or 6%, the biggest loss since dropping 9 percent in September. The latest round of selling has oil bulls heading for the hills, with long and medium term traders dumping positions as sentiment shifts.
While the drop is bad for oil bulls consumers at the pump are welcoming the relief, although the correlating drop never appears to come as fast. Hmmm.
