| In 1990, when Iraq invaded Kuwait, oil prices quickly doubled from around $20 per barrel to more than $40. You can see that during that move in oil, the S&P 500 had a nearly identical inverse reaction. Nine years later, as the dot-com boom was entering its final phase, oil surged from about $10 per barrel to nearly $40 a year and a half later. Interestingly, as oil rose, the S&P - caught in the final throes of dot-com mania - did not slide immediately. In fact, it continued to rise even though the rally was clearly running out of gas (pun intended). Then, just as oil peaked, the market began its plummet. $100 Oil The first time oil broke above $100 was January 2, 2008. Like we saw during the dot-com boom, as oil began its rise, the market didn't drop immediately. But that $100 level proved too much. In conjunction with the global financial crisis, the market melted down. Oil ascending to $145 put additional pressure on stocks. The global recession brought oil prices back in check, but they quickly began surging again when the Arab Spring uprisings began in December 2010. Oil bounced around between roughly $75 and $110 for the next three years. After the pounding from the financial crisis, stocks got up off the mat, even as oil prices doubled between 2009 and 2011 and then stayed elevated for several years. The S&P continued higher despite the high price of oil. The COVID crash in 2020 obliterated both oil prices and stock prices. They quickly recovered together until oil hit $100, which was around the same time that stocks topped out and the 2022 bear market began. So what have we learned? Investing when oil prices are rising is like driving during a bad storm. It doesn't necessarily mean that a crash is coming and it's time to panic. But you should be paying closer attention and proceeding more carefully. Good investing, Marc P.S. As we enter Phase 2 of the AI revolution, demand for American oil and gas will explode... And so will the income opportunities. In fact, I've found a way to collect up to 16 payouts per year as everything plays out. Click here to see how it works. |
