What the EIA Summary is not telling you in their text comments about gasoline
Total gasoline inventories up 2.0MM barrels, and above the upper limit of the average range. But, if you look at the components of this, you get a strange picture. Reformulated flat at 0.6MM barrels Conventional up 0.4MM barrels to 83.9MM barrels, up 0.5 percent for the week. Blending components up 1.7MM barrels to an incredible 145MM barrels, up 1.2 percent for the week. Then, when you look at the year over year comparisons, you see: Conventional 83.9MM versus 95.5MM, down 12.1 percent year over year Blending components 145.0MM versus 120.0MM, UP 20.8 percent year over year! My opinion is that we are awash in ethanol, that the farmers produced one heckuva lot of corn, the ethanol producers produced one heckuva lot of ethanol, and the inventories are reflecting this. But this masks the true state of the gasoline inventorie |
