Oil: OPEC has 'hands on the steering wheel' of energy market

Crude oil futures (CL=F, BZ=F) momentarily pause their price rally after hitting multi-month highs, remaining elevated around various geopolitical tensions including the ongoing conflict between Israeli and Hamas forces in the Middle East. CIBC Private Wealth US Senior Energy Trader Rebecca Babin weighs in on the oil inventory pressures associated with OPEC+'s production cuts and the Russia-Ukraine War, looking ahead to the range where oil and US gas prices could eventually settle into. "Right now what they [OPEC+] have is a beautiful position of controlling the market. They've got their hands on the steering wheel here. They don't want to lose that," Babin tells Yahoo Finance. "You let it go too far, you get SPR (Strategic Petroleum Reserve). So, let's bring back some barrels. I think this puts a damper on this rally to $100 [per barrel] that some people are talking about. And he second big factor I think is demand destruction. You can't just have an explosive rally to the upside and think demand is going to be completely inelastic."

Utilities: Where AI fits into the future of this sector play

The utilities sector (XLU) has remained nearly flat year-to-date when compared to the massive gains seen in other sectors in 2024, such as technology. Citi Equity Analyst Ryan Levine believes that the utilities sector's poor performance has gone on for too long, pointing to AI as "the real emerging story" that will "create a demand growth for the industry at large." "There's two groups of companies — companies on the regulated utility side and then on the unregulated side," Levine explains to Yahoo Finance. "On the regulated side, companies as you articulate in terms of close proximity to the data center buildout. So we identify Georgia as a state that's very attractive and are recommending Southern Company (SO) on that theme."
