Take Advantage When Oil Starts Its Climb To $75

It’s time to stop worrying about the bottom of this market and start taking advantage of the carnage the gross mismanagement of this country’s affairs has left us. Oil is a good place to start.

$40 Oil? Are you kidding me? This is what I call a slap in the face investment. It’s so obvious it’s hitting you in the nose.

This temporary worldwide slow down, and it is temporary, has pushed oil down to a point most people never thought they’d see again. After all the speculation driven price increases of the past few years, it is a nice break, but it won’t last long.
Oil at this price isn’t reasonable. Some of the price drop is the typical over reaction by investors because the run up to the $147 range was so over done. This sell off has created one of the greatest money making opportunities, ever.

The reality of the situation is that OPEC will only put up with these prices for so long. Forget about all the technical data, the opinions of the talking heads and supply/demand numbers, the price is going up.

The best guy I know in the business, a commodities analyst with a group in Chicago says oil should rise to at least $75 in 2009. One way or another OPEC will raise prices. They have to; they need the money.

The problem with not having an energy policy for the past 40 years is that we are wide open to the demands of energy exporters. If they decide they are going to raise the price of oil, they can. Whether it’s because of manipulation, production, consumption or nothing, it will go up. Just look back to 1974 to see how it can be done.

We are doing virtually nothing to reduce our dependence on imported oil, unless you consider this administration’s rhetoric as doing something. The developing world will shortly resume its huge demand for oil and other commodities, and $75 a barrel will be cheap.

Rather than get caught again with your pants down at the gas pump, lets look at how to turn the tables and make money on this run up.
