The Limits of Oil’s Rebound
Anatole Kaletsky (May 30, 2016) - [...] "From now on, the costs faced by these marginal producers will set the top and bottom of oil’s trading range. Low-cost producers in Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, and Russia will continue to pump as much as their physical infrastructure can transport as long as the price is higher than $25 or so. The price needed to elicit enough production from US shale and Canadian tar sands to meet strong demand may be $50, $55, or even $60, but it is unlikely to be much higher than that.
Unpredictable shifts in supply and demand will, of course, cause fluctuations within this trading range, which past experience suggests could be quite large. In the 20-year period of competitive pricing from 1985 to 2004, the oil price frequently doubled or halved in the course of a few months. So the near-doubling of oil prices since mid-January’s $28 low is not surprising. But now that the $50 ceiling is being tested, we can expect the next major move in the trading range to be downward."

The 162-Year Cycle in Stocks and Commodities Since 1555 | Ahmed Farghaly
Stock Prices 1509 to date.
The combined chart offers further evidence of this cycle’s presence. Notice how neatly the first 324-year cycle subdivides into two 162-year cycles. The trough of the 162-year cycle is precisely in the middle of the 324-year cycle. Upon closer inspection, you’ll see that both 162-year cycles subdivide into three 54-year cycles, reinforcing our conclusion that the Kondratieff wave is the third harmonic of the 162-year cycle. After the trough in 1784, we experienced three 54-year cycles, ending with the crash of the late 1920s, which marked the trough of the 162-year cycle. What followed was the greatest bull market in modern history, and it is unfortunate that we are nearing its end. The peak of the last 324-year cycle occurred in the third 18-year cycle of the second 54-year cycle of the second 162-year cycle, which is where we find ourselves today. The likelihood of further translation beyond the previous 324-year cycle is slim, considering that the influence of the 972-year cycle has leveled out since the 1930s.
The Elliott Wave structure is also quite interesting. What stands out on the chart is the fact that we had a fifth-wave extension in the entire advance since 1784. Even more intriguing is that the move from 1932 also featured a fifth-wave extension. According to the wave principle, fifth-wave extensions are typically followed by crashes. Commodities offer excellent examples of this phenomenon, as their dramatic crashes are often the result of a fifth-wave extension.
