OPEC Wins Over Hedge Funds to Make 2017 Oil's Most Bullish Year - Bloomberg

OPEC Wins Over Hedge Funds to Make 2017 Oil's Most Bullish Year - Bloomberg:

"Oil bulls are charging into the new year with unprecedented vigor, and the credit goes to OPEC. The signs that the group is winning its tug of war with shale are compelling, and money managers have taken note: Their combined bets on rising prices for West Texas Intermediate and Brent crude reached record levels in December. “At least through the first half of 2018, they’ll stay pretty bullish,” said Ashley Petersen, lead oil-market strategist at Stratas Advisors in New York. “June will be a real turning point because that’s when we’ll hear about unwinding the deal, and if OPEC doesn’t handle it delicately, then there will be concern that the market will be flooded with oil again.”"
