Why Are Oil Prices So Low? And Where Are They Headed Next?

By , Associate Editor, Money Morning -

why are oil prices so low

Oil prices are down 14% on the year, despite OPEC starting and extending its 1.8-million-barrel oil production cut agreement in 2017.

The oil price drop surprised investors because OPEC reached a deal to cut oil production on Nov. 30, 2016.

Here's why oil prices have dropped this year and why we expect they'll rise over the summer to hit our latest oil price target...

Today's oil price news is focused on Qatar's sudden diplomatic isolation in the Middle East, but higher oil prices are still on the way.

Early this morning (June 5), Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Bahrain, Yemen, and the UAE each cut diplomatic and commercial ties with Qatar, a member of OPEC.

Here's why Qatar's sudden isolation is pushing oil prices down, and why we are still bullish on oil prices in 2017...

WTI crude oil futures fell nearly 2% on the day to hit a 2017 low of $47.34, but that's no cause for panic.

The OPEC oil price deal is working, and it's injecting life back into the American oil industry.

That means savvy oil investors can ride the resurgence of American oil to double-digit profits this year. Here's how...

Yes, the crude oil price is in the midst of a massive rebound.

My Oil Price Forecast Shows Why Crude Supplies and Imports Are Rising

By , Global Energy Strategist, Oil & Energy Investor • @KentMoors_OEI -

oil price forecast

U.S. crude inventories are sitting at record highs of around 2.05 billion barrels right now.

That's not a surprise. After all, there's a lingering global crude glut.

But what's surprising - at first glance - are U.S. crude imports. They're up by close to 1 million barrels per day. The country took in 8.64 million barrels per day in the week ending March 25, compared to just 7.69 million over the same period a year ago. 

Therein lies what appears to be a paradox: Why on Earth would we import more oil when we may be forced to fill swimming pools with it soon?

The answer is very simple, and it becomes clear when you see my oil price targets...

Fed Chair Janet Yellen's seemingly harmless interest rate decision is sending the U.S. crude oil price soaring.

How to Profit from the "Great Oil Turnaround" of 2016

By , Global Energy Strategist, Oil & Energy Investor • @KentMoors_OEI -

oil

We've been able to make energy profits during the oil bear because I'm tracking opportunities outside of petroleum. One of my favorite alternative "oil-killer" energy plays, for instance, is up 45% since I recommended it. The global energy balance is simply shifting to favor these alternative energy sources.

But oil is still vitally important, and I'm pleased to report that it's going to be a bigger source of profits moving forward...

You see, towards the end of February, we saw signs that oil is about to turn the corner, with oil prices shooting up 8.5% in a single week.

While they later fell a bit, showing that volatility is still the name of the game, make no mistake...

A sustained rise in oil prices is coming.

To prepare for this trend, I've put together a plan for us to profit.

I'm tracking several companies across four different categories, but this one strategy will get you perfectly positioned to capture the biggest possible profits from the coming end of oil's decline.

In a moment, you'll see exactly how this plan will work.

But first, here's what's changed to allow for this turnaround in oil prices...
