...I may have got my call on Oil too early but I always knew a high oil price could never sustain. Sure it could return higher in the near future but if it does, it would lead to a severe recession now that it is almost a certainty that one (recession) is already underway.
...Demand destruction/ deflation narrative is never good for commodities. Yes, some (copper, lithium) may be in supply deficit but IMO demand destruction narrative is more powerful. I kept saying this: the paper market carries more weight than the physical market- commodity traders move markets and you can expect the deflation narrative to steal the focus over supply deficits over the coming months. You can be short on the commodity but if you are short of demand, the supply gap is not even that much relevant.
