Market Adapts to Higher Prices

844
In last week’s tutorial, we discussed a potential cup and handle pattern. I received comments expressing concern that if prices reach those levels, the economy will be unable to sustain them. I share these concerns. If that happens, the economy may suffer an initial setback; however, it will likely adapt to higher crude oil prices over time.

We have seen how the economy adapted to high oil prices following the 1973 oil embargo and from the start of the 'war on terror' in 2001 to the present day.

Most importantly, we must focus on what we can do now to prepare for what is coming.
