It might be hard to believe but WTI crude has rallied nearly 50% since March 17th. While crude's recent rally has certainly taken the crowd by surprise (as illustrated by tremendous short covering in the exchange traded fund USO) there's ample reason to believe that crude oil's upside move may have just come to an end.

  • Producers have been hedging aggressively in recent months and $65/barrel is a key price level that makes even some of the highest cost wells profitable, expect producers to accelerate their hedging activities at $60+
