Biden’s Bill Passes7 Mar 2021 09:26
The C19 relief bill has been passes by the Senate and now goes back to the House on Tuesday then Biden’s desk on Thursday. They say this $1.9 Billion will start to be sent out before the end of the month. This should get the economy going.
The Canadians will be pumping out 500,000 bpd less shale oil due to maintenance. In Canada they seem to be more concerned about their carbon footprint than their neighbours to the south. The American shale producers may not start pumping out huge quantities of oil just because of the higher oil price, this is due to Biden and their investors are demanding dividend payments which are rare.
So all of these things combined should lead to a higher oil price.
