Pavaresi:
Hedge funds certainly played a part but main basis is supply & demand & driver behind that is 'peak oil' - hedge funds were playing on the 'trend' behind this. Days of cheap oil are coming to an end, so for those who can - enjoy the respite while it lasts.
As for the statement that US has a solid economy, you are kidding, right?
Fundamental problem there is debt & that has not been addressed. 'Printing money' is not a solution - just delays the inevitable. Remember how Greenspan was lauded when he stepped down. Is now being castigated for precisely those same actions.

Just as I did not say you did, merely saying to be careful;)
Regarding oil price per barrel, personally am not tempted to predict what the price will be next year. Not even reasonably sure what it will be next month as OPEC has just announced a cut in production & Russia is talking about diverting excess production into a strategic reserve.
Meanwhile price is still falling - US$64 as I write this.
Interesting & unsettling times.
