1 00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg Surveillance. I don't think there's going to 2 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 1: be a major change in interest rates anytime. So the 3 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:13,399 Speaker 1: people who think rates are going up, I think they'll 4 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: call up. A little stable oil at fifty dollars would 5 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 1: be a wonderful thing for everybody, and Summers would be happy, 6 00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 1: Industry wouldn't be happy. That would be the best of 7 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:22,759 Speaker 1: all worlds. The mentality of the FED has shifted. The 8 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 1: Fed does want to normalize rates, and as long as 9 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: there is not something in their way, they will continue 10 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,920 Speaker 1: to do that. Bloomberg Surveillance your link to the world 11 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: of economics, finance, and investment on Bloomberg Radio.

Not so much right now, 14 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 1: some stasis right now, but wow, overnight, huge moves and 15 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: interest rates, some of the foreign exchange pairs moving. Of course, 16 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: Korea with a shock rate cut.

Mike, 27 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: before we get to our steam guests, I'll let you 28 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 1: bring them in. Um. Vladimir Miklaszewski at Donska Bank, which 29 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 1: is a wonderful interesting economics team. He notices the leptokurtodic 30 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 1: Russia rate call for tomorrow. He's going cross moments out 31 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: on Twitter. No mention of kurtosis. I was gonna make 32 00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: fun of you for that, but but you're actually making sense. Uh. 33 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: The average person just drove off the road when I 34 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: said that. I know, but apparently there is a big 35 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: trade into Russian paper right now because the Russian Central 36 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: Bank is meeting tomorrow to decide whether or not to 37 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:18,399 Speaker 1: cut rates. Anytime, anytime anyone mentions leaptokurtosis or kurtosis itself, 38 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: any of the cross moments, we go apoplectic here at 39 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Surveillance. So there it is. If you're looking for 40 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: a risk trade, there you go. You know, um, I 41 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: don't know what the odds are of a rate cut 42 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: in Russia, but no, obviously something to consider. We were 43 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 1: in the intro densk gardmen liking fifty dollars a barrel. 44 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: Why don't you bring in our esteem guest darkman like 45 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: stability here. I don't know whether Amada said likes fifty 46 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: dollar oil or not, but she's got to make a 47 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 1: decision on which way it's going to go from there. 48 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: The interesting thing is we saw a big run up 49 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,399 Speaker 1: from the thirties to fifties and now yeah, I mean 50 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: it's it's beginning, um to be sort of a grind. 51 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: Everydy with energy aspects so sort of begin to be 52 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 1: a grind. And I'm wondering how much further? How much fast? 53 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: How fast? Good morning? And I'm glad to say you 54 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: said I don't have a preference for pricing. I don't. 55 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: I don't like or dislike any price less, that's that's 56 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: for sure. Uh No, but I think this is going 57 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: to be a slow grind higher because of once in 58 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: the region, we still have a lot of stocks to 59 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: run through. Don't get me wrong. We've been positive on 60 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: oil since the start of the year, even when it 61 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: was at twenty seven, simply because that wasn't based on fundamentals. 62 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: Fundamentals are turning the longer than Nigeria now to just 63 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: last the quicker reason to rebalance. But some people who 64 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: used to expect rebalancing in have now all started to 65 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: expect it in age to sixteen, which is correct, and 66 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: that's always been our view. But the point is it's 67 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: going to be a slow move higher because we have 68 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: to run down these infantries. I think we've kind of 69 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: for the market. We've oscillated from being super sumper bearish 70 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: to suddenly everybody turned bullish. But it needs to be 71 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: slightly more measured. And this is uh you know, a 72 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: market that is a little unlike equities or something like 73 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: that in a sense that you don't have uh an 74 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: unlimited ceiling for where you can go. How high does 75 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: this particular rally take us? Where's the cap? I think 76 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: in the very near term, of course, you're going to 77 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: get so many corrections on the way, but around fifty 78 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: five I mean, for me forty five to fifty five 79 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: is the new trading rich, the new ten dollar range. 80 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: At the moment, our price forecast for Q three is 81 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: fifty five, Q four sixty five, and this is for Brent. 82 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: So again it's going to be a slow grind higher. 83 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: But if you think slightly broader kind of the secular trend, 84 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 1: I do think we are setting up, and I think 85 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: we've discussed this before on this show as well, for 86 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: a spike higher, but it's probably not teen or maybe 87 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: late seventeen, because we are losing immense amounts of supplies 88 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: which are just not going to come back very quickly, 89 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: almost irrespective of the price, because there's a time lag 90 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: associated between when prices right or for and the decision 91 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:15,239 Speaker 1: is taken on the supplies swing though roughly how voul 92 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: can you is this going to be? And of course 93 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,599 Speaker 1: it is. I mean, we don't think it's going to 94 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: be much more likely seeing today you know, you're you're 95 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: off about fifty cents or so from yesterday. It is 96 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 1: going to trade in that kind of you know, two 97 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: dollar ranges. About the reason I gave you the ten 98 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: dollar ranges. There are a few important meetings or events 99 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 1: coming up. There's breakfit there's the FED decisions. So there 100 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: are some of those macro factors that can lead to 101 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: a fairly significant amount of volatively, outside of that, it 102 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: will probably be a couple of dollars. And now for 103 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: the dumb question of the morning, I'm qualified to ask that, 104 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: and Rita, I'm fascinated if people like you can ever 105 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 1: discover equilibrium in supply and demand in all your years 106 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 1: of studying hydrocarbons, can you actually note when supply lines 107 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: up with demand? Or is that just a fiction? I 108 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: think it's a fiction. I don't think you ever have 109 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 1: that work, or there might be, you know, a point 110 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 1: in time when you get that, but you always also 111 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: date from the huge oversupp language we had. Now we're 112 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: kind of running through that. And because the market is 113 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 1: a market and we kind of swing right, we've co forcott. 114 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 1: Now we've got too much supplies that then how do 115 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: you how do you respond to Gary Shillings informed call 116 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: of sharply lower oil prices because supply won't clear, you know, 117 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 1: the microeconomics will still allow for a sustained supply of 118 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: the product. Do you just doubt that that will happen? 119 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: Thank you? Not just because of the wildfires, but actual 120 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: underline US production today is down about eight hundred thousand 121 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: barrels per day year on year. More importantly, it splaces 122 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: like Brazil, China. That's where productions falling, I mean across 123 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: the world, nonofect supplies that What about what about the 124 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: oil tankers off whichever harbor you want to talk about. 125 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: The biggest one at the moment is actually in Asia. 126 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: It's a it's of Singapore and Malaysia. And that's an 127 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: interesting one because if you look at the shape of 128 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: the curve, the klintangle has not entirely disappeared, but we've 129 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: basically flattened out all the curves. Again, it's a sign 130 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: of a tightening market. Brent flat, Dubai is actually in 131 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: backuidation and w t I is quite flat as well. 132 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: To the tanker, they are actually not being held as 133 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: a storage play. It's basically China because there are these 134 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: new independent teapot refinery small refineries that have been given 135 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: crude licenses. They are starting to import cruder, but they 136 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: don't have the infrastructure of the space to do so. 137 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: So there's massive congestion which has then spilled over to Singapore, 138 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 1: and that's why you're seeing those anchors. Uh, the the 139 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: spread between West Texas and Bread has really really narrowed 140 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: in recent months, and at some point brief points we've 141 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: had West Texas trading add or above Bread. What about 142 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: the rest of the world, I mean, there are dozens 143 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: of grades of oil, but how is the rest of 144 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: the world converging as well? Is just becoming a different 145 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: kind of trade? Yes, I mean Brent is it's stronger 146 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: than a lot of the Asian grades, particularly Dubide, mainly 147 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: because the Uranian production is rising and that pressurizing some 148 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: of that grade. But generally there's been a very significant 149 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: convergence across all the grade. The biggest are normally used 150 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: to be West Texas and because of the convergence there, 151 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: pretty much everything else is trading broadly in line with 152 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: the Brent and w T I. Obviously Nigeria's a separate case. 153 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 1: But what about Canada. Uh, we have you mentioned the wildfires. 154 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: We have sort of written the Canadians off. But as 155 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: a Canadian dollar gets a little bit stronger, are they 156 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: coming back a little bit weaker? I mean they're coming back. 157 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: We are starting to come back. But unfortunately, I'm sure 158 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: you've seen there's been another wildfire just like yesterday and 159 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: early this morning as well. That that's led to the 160 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: evacuation of two new sites. And the wildfires this time 161 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: are close to quite a few sag deep projects of 162 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: some of the other oil science projects. So I don't 163 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,839 Speaker 1: think this is over yet, very very Unfortunately um I 164 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 1: may not be of the same scale, but yes, it's 165 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: it has already led to UM two sites being evacually evacuated, 166 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: so yes, well some of them are coming back, I 167 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: think O those are having to shut down again West Canada. 168 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: So this morning, Wow, that's interesting.
