Oil Net Short For First Time in History

By Julianne Geiger - September 13, 2024

Brent crude oil is currently priced at $72.14 per barrel, showing a slight increase of $0.17 (+0.24%) for the day. However, behind this small rise is a much larger story unfolding in the oil markets. According to energy investor and market commentator Eric Nuttall, the financial demand for oil, known as "net length," has dropped to its lowest point in history. Essentially, "net length" refers to the difference between the number of investors betting oil prices will rise (long positions) versus those betting they will fall (short positions). When net length is low, it means there is a reduced belief that prices will increase. What's even more striking is that, for the first time ever, the paper market for Brent crude is "net short."

By Syrus Mill - September 14, 2024

Torus Group is poised to become a major player in the provision of financial collateral in the form of SBLC or BG from Deutsche Bank in Frankfurt. Many more or less serious companies offer this type of service without having the capacity, causing a lot of suspicion in this sector of finance. TORUS GROUP works without intermediaries, with its own money and has recently doubled its cash reserves which reach more than two billion euros today. No payment of fees is required before a reassuring bank-to-bank contact for the customer and the provision of an irrevocable bank commitment document. The initial costs after RWA are very modest compared to the guaranteed sums which can reach several hundred million euros.
