"A reduction in price of brent from $80 to $60 is bound eventually to feed through to increased world wide consumption especially in very price sensitive countries such as China and India."
That is some wild logic. China manufacturing output is cratering, order books are drying up or blank, trade is being disrupted, consumer confidence is shot to pieces, US economy shrunk in Q1, Europe and many other regions continue to crawl or flatline so...People and businesses suddenly start guzzling more oil and petrol just because it's a bit cheaper?
