分析师称,长期合约价格最近大涨,将会进一步加剧人们的忧虑。在过去6个月中,长期石油期货价格涨势一直强于现货价格。自去年9月至今,5年期合约价格上涨了45.3%,而现货价格的涨幅只有38.1%。
Those concerns will be re- inforced by the recent surge in forward prices, analysts said. Long-dated oil futures have outperformed spot prices during the past six months. The five-year forward price has risen 45.3 per cent since September, while the spot price has risen by 38.1 per cent.
法国巴黎银行(BNP Paribas)的Harry Tchilinguirian表示,最近的油价变动反映了市场人气的变化。“长期合约价格体现的是新增石油供给成本,它们目前仍在高位震荡,继续反映出市场人气中根深蒂固的对供给问题的担忧——不只是今年,而且包括以后。”
Harry Tchilinguirian of BNP Paribas said the recent move reflected a shift in sentiment. “Long-dated prices, a proxy for the cost of new oil supply, are still high and volatile and continue to reflect the ingrained supply-side concerns in market sentiment – not just for this year, but beyond,” he said.
分析师称,人们担忧的内容还包括不断上升的通货膨胀率、石油生产国税率的提高,以及外界无从“问津”沙特、科威特、委内瑞拉和墨西哥等国国有石油公司控制的石油储量。 Among those concerns, analysts said, is rising inflation, increases in taxation in producing countries and a lack of access to reserves controlled by national oil companies in countries such as Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Venezuela and Mexico.
