The baseline has long been a 3 month delay in the taper but that’s not happening. I would have expected a kneejerk lower on this but oil is holding up, at least so far.

I guess if oil can absorb the extra 1mbpd from Libya, it can support this. You know what they say: Something that can’t fall on bearish news probably can’t fall at all. With the US dollar crumbling, that’s a tailwind for oil.

At the same time, it’s early in this oil move.
