Just look at Euro vs Dollar chart. From 1.15 to 1.5 So we can do the following math: $99 x 1.15/ 1.5 = $75.9 http://www.metaquotes.net/forex/eurusd/
$75 is said to be fair value for oil. I'm amazed at how many economists just look at the price in USD and seem to be ignorant of the dollar's recent decline. The worse line I hear is due to "hedge fund" speculation. Plz, when oil was at $15 -- how come no one was complaining about speculators driving down the price.
exactly! source:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_price_increases_of_2004-2006 that means oil could be at $200 a barrel today and it still wouldn't be a bubble
