Crude Oil Heading for $134 During 2008 Despite Near-term Weakness

By Donald W. Dony, FCSI, MFTA

Thursday's downward trading of oil brought some relief to the equity markets. Don't expect the decline to last. Technical models are indicating short-term downward pressure until the end of April. As May unfolds, increasing upward pressure should return. The first level of support is at $110 followed by solid support at $100.



Bottom line: The selling pressure in crude oil prices is expected to be brief but swift with good support levels close to current prices. Look for for oil to move back to $120 in May. The near term target is $127 with $134 as the upward target in 2008.
