Market Overview: Crude
Oil slid further the last few weeks on the supply and demand outlook for 2019 due to the US/China trade war and a weaker economic outlook. The crudes and equities moved lower hand in hand. Brent nosedived below 60 USD/bbl and WTI could barely keep its head above 50 USD/bbl.
Both benchmarks lost more than 30% of its value since October. The OPEC cut only delivered short term relief with a dead cat bounce last Friday. OPEC will reduce oil production by a total of 800,000 bpd, while non-OPEC nations, led by Russia, are reportedly adding another 400,000 bpd of cuts, for a total of 1.2 million bpd OPEC+ production cut. Brent is showing a minor contango now all the way out to July 2019. WTI is weaker with a contango of around 1.70 USD/bbl up to Dec19. Even with flat price taking a beating, the curve has held up reasonably well.
Market Overview: Gasoline
The European gasoline market is weak at the front and the contango is running out to June 2019 and is now roughly at 55 USD/MT. A lot of market players have locked in the play and as an effect, summer spec is in high demand and hard to source so a profitable contango game seems harder than it looks at first sight if you take storage and financing into account as well. The US market shows a more steep contango curve, which makes life a little easier.
