Is there any end in sight?” It may be just around the corner, as oil prices were bearish and in the $50 a barrel range. \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cOur energy bets are bruised and battered, and it\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s easyto see why.”<\/p>\n

Predicting the cold weather trends that have set in, the Insiders Corner also reminded investors of other factors, besides the weather, that support higher energy prices including \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cTensions in theMiddle East\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d, but the eerily warm weather in much of the U.S. is about to “turn on a dime,” predicts AccuWeather.com forecaster Joe Bastardi.<\/p>\n

As far as where oil is currently trading, Eden Energy Corporation President and CEO Don Sharpe comments, \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cWe expect oil prices to strengthen throughout the remainder of the year as geopolitical risksreemerge due to actions in Nigeria, Iran and other volatile parts of the oil producing world. We believe oil demand will continue to increase and supply will feel pressure due to smaller discoveriesworld wide. Heavy oil and oil sands are available to make up the difference, but these sources require a stable, higher oil price.\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d<\/p>\n
