High oil and gasoline prices will need to rise even higher this summer to incentivize new production and discourage consumption, according to Goldman Sachs
The Wall Street bank is now forecasting Brent crude oil prices will average $140 a barrel between July and September, up from its prior call of $125 a barrel. Brent is currently trading at about $120 a barrel.Worse, Goldman Sachs said summer retail gas prices are going to need to spike to levels normally associated with $160 oil in order to curtail demand."A large spike in prices remains quite possible this summer," Goldman Sachs strategists wrote in a report to clients.
Ohio, Pennsylvania, Utah and Idaho are just pennies away from $5. Goldman Sachs is now calling for Brent oil to average $135 a barrel during the second half of this year and first half of next. That's up $10 from the bank's previous forecast. "We believe oil prices need to rally further to normalize the unsustainably low levels of global oil inventories, as well as OPEC and refining spare capacities," Goldman Sachs strategists wrote.
