The Wall Street Journal quotes an oil analyst at Natixis

  • " ... an extremely bearish scenario ... we will probably see a knee-jerk reaction on the market"
  • "Prices could touch $30 a barrel within days"

He is referring to the Doha weekend meeting of oil producers where no agreement to 'freeze' production was reached.

  • The failed talks will "seriously hurt investor confidence"

Also, from Ole Hansen, head of commodity strategy at Saxo Bank

  • "OPEC has once again been high on promises but low on delivery as politics once more got in the way"
