POO has fallen out of bed last night. WTI down 2.8% to $49.80 as i write with an hour before close. Considering crude oil is world's largest traded commodity it emphasises how crazy the whole mkt has become. SKE revenue has considerable exposure to oil companies and it won't be unaffected. Below $1.50 it stays a 'hold'. But agree its a very difficult mkt at present. AUD needs to keep falling.
Newbies can afford to be patient and watch from sidelines. can't rule anything out. I mean who forecast oil to halve in price in just 6 months!!! Mind boggling times.
