Oil Hovers Around 8-Month Lows Near $80
The Federal Reserve on Wednesday extended an interest-rate reduction program known as Operation Twist, pledging to sell $267 billion of short-term Treasury bonds and buy longer-term Treasurys through December. However, traders had been hoping for a more aggressive stimulus package known as quantitative easing.
“Bears are on the cusp of smashing through the $80 level,” energy trader and consultant The Schork Group said in a report. Schork said the benchmark U.S. crude could fall to $74 and Brent to $82.
A surprising jump in U.S. crude supplies also weighed on crude prices. The Energy Information Administration said oil supplies grew by 2.9 million barrels last week while analysts surveyed by Platts, the energy information arm of McGraw-Hill Cos., had predicted a decrease of 600,000 barrels.
“The inventory data … was sobering,” said analysts at Commerzbank in Frankfurt, noting that U.S. crude oil stocks had reached their highest level in nearly 22 years. “Given that refinery utilization is close to a 5-year high, one would really have expected to see an inventory reduction. That this was not the case was due to significantly higher crude oil imports and increased U.S. oil production.”
Crude has plunged about 25 percent from $106 early last month amid signs of slowing economic growth in the U.S., Europe and China. However, some analysts say investors are too pessimistic about global crude demand prospects.
“Oil prices at current levels are too low and a more a reflection of risk aversion rather than any significant unwinding in demand,” National Australia Bank said in a report.
In other energy trading, heating oil was down 0.71 cent at $2.5775 per gallon while gasoline futures fell 2.59 cents at $2.4814 per gallon. Natural gas gained 5.1 cents at $2.568 per 1,000 cubic feet.

Energy Tomorrow – Petroleum, or crude oil, is a naturally-occurring liquid composed primarily of hydrogen and carbon compounds. Americans use oil for transportation fuel and to heat our homes, but this resource is vital to our daily lives in many other, lesser-known ways. Petroleum products touch most aspects of our day-to-day safety, mobility, health and lifestyle. From replacement joints and pacemakers to fertilizers, feedstocks, phones and iPods®, oil is a key component in the vast majority of manufactured goods.
Currently, oil is the principal transportation fuel in the United States, accounting for more than 97 percent of the energy that powers our nation’s automobiles, airplanes and ships. In fact, oil is expected to remain the dominant fuel in our nation’s energy mix for decades to come. As global demand rises, is it vital to produce more North American energy. Doing so boosts U.S. energy security, but also keeps our economy going strong.
Combined with natural gas production, the oil industry supports nearly 9.2 million American jobs, while providing millions of dollars to the economy through state and local revenue each day. Consider it the energy stimulus: $476 billion delivered to the U.S. economy in 2010—equal to roughly 60 percent of the 2009 federal stimulus. It’s a stimulus that didn’t require an act of Congress and which, with the right policies, can be repeated over and over—helping to drive broader economic recovery.
