Seems though that Bakken Shale and fracked petroleum is expensive to produce relative to the Middle East stuff.
What are the implications as WTI closes at under $88?
*Wonder if the fed will feel the need to juice prices on other consumer goods to make up for the slackening barrel prices. Seems to be the MO for the last decade.

Good link, Derry.
""It is estimated that shale oil production in North Dakota and Texas require a minimum of $70 to $80 a barrel to operate profitably. Any dramatic price decline as occurred in 1986 would put those operations in serious jeopardy'''.
