Oil is in Trouble – Watch the Fed Dot-Plots
Oil is in trouble again. On Wednesday, when the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) publishes its economic forecasts, I expect the dot-plots will show Fed rate expectations for this year are higher than the market has currently priced in. If that is the case, then oil investors will have to account for the fact that the Fed is applying the brakes to the suspect economy at a time when energy supply already overwhelms demand. Also the dollar would likely surge on such action, which pressures all commodities. The result is lower energy prices. Oil is in trouble. See the full Oil Warning Report here.
