PXJ will go UP

Like it or not, oil will continue to go up. Some think that we are in an oil bubble, but the truth is that China and India are sucking up whatever we don't use. Even if the bubble pops, oil will only retreat to about $120 then shoot back up to the $150 levels. The days of easy oil are gone and we are not replacing the depleting fields with new fields quick enough. America and every other growing country is addicted to oil because no other substance has the same energy density. If you really think that demand will drop, think of it this way. The price of oil has gone up over 100% in a year, yet demand has only gone down .5%. 10% of oil goes towards agriculture for shipping and fertilizer. Even if the average american uses 5 less gallons per week, the average Indian or Chinese person will glady pour it into their new vehicle. The reason I like PXJ is because most of the companies provide the equipment needed to explore for new oil. As oil goes up, so will the revenues for the companies that supply the equipment to drill it.

How are the Indians are the Chinese going to afford oil if Americans and Europeans cannot? They may be growing but they are still not even close to as well off as Americans and Europeans. The Asian markets for oil will see a pullback in demand as well. Americans have shown that they are not addicted to oil. Traffic in major cities has been decreasing, and oil stockpiles keep beating estimates. The supply is high and the demand is dwindling. Over exuberant commodity traders are keeping the price high. Of course over a large amount of time the price will go up. Every commodity price goes up over a certain period of time, but in the foreseeable future (about a year or so) oil will go down. PXJ is a good choice in the extreme long term (10 years or so) but for a different reason, there are many off-shore oil fields that are waiting to be drilled but cannot be drilled because it takes years of red tape to clear up.
