Crude Oil WTI Futures Discussions

I just read this in an article about BP.\n\nHowever, investors should remember that timing the supply crunch is less important than understanding its inevitability. Today, tomorrow, or a week from now, the reduction of oil production is a verified trend.\n\nMore than half of all American oil rigs have stagnated since then. U.S. output in August and September was down an average of 330,000 barrels per day from June and July. Once OPEC has pushed enough competitors into the red, the organization will let oil prices go higher. (Source: “OPEC Sees U.S. Oil Output Falling for First Time in Eight Years,” Bloomberg, October 12, 2015.) At this point, it’s just a waiting game.\n\n\n
Vandal, look at the opposite, what happens if they say, steady as she goes?
Sure, Vandal, who knows what will happen. But purely from a strategic business standpoint, if they let prices go higher, shale and other production will quickly spike and oil price will capitulate. It's a double-edged sword for OPEC: but what they need is not higher prices, it's market share and control for their members...as always....
If they say steady as she goes then...that means up because the technical and price trend is up.
