Rudyard Kipling wrote in his famous poem, “If you can keep your head when others are losing theirs and blaming it on you, then you’ll be a man, my son.” Shocks from OPEC decisions can leave even the experts on the edge of their seats.

OPEC, deflecting blame for the oil market crash, slightly increased its 2023 global oil demand growth forecast to 2.46 million barrels per day. The group's aggressive production cuts, aiming for $100 per barrel, face skepticism. Market bears challenge OPEC's strategy, selling consistently for three weeks. Questions persist about OPEC+ members responding with...

Unfortunately my last UKOIL prediction didn’t fair too well but using the science of Elliott Wave I think I’ve been able to identify previous mistakes and also a way forward. I expect the $90-$91 range to send UKOIL back to $25 over the next 3 years or so. Based on what news? Who knows. We’ll see when it comes but the chart is always the first indicator :)
