2:35 am
time to work off that stock. it will happen over time. no one will wake up and suddenly see there is no oil left. the world continues to have plenty of stock of oil. ryan: how long will it take to work through this stock? and get back to $100 oil? >> there is so much more supply. are all being more efficient. the u.k. consumption of oil is going down, not much but it is going down. efficiency in cars is going up as it is in airplanes. there is a possibility that you will not necessarily know back above $100 ever. ugly andam old and have been in the business far too long but if you think about the last 40-50 years, we have only been above $100 for a few years. and china has changed. huge growth in china.
2:36 am
very dramatic. in the past, we did not have shale. ryan: you said that you see the oil price at $48 a barrel. the year after --where do we move? >> i think we really do imagine a bandage. between see that $40-$60. you can bet60 come that we would bring back on some of those oil fields. aboutmounts of discussion the u.s. shale. ar us, it looks clear that lot of the oil that will be shut down in the next short while because it is too low a price,

2:39 am
direction of oil prices at the pump? i don't think so. you're not seeing the same correction at the pop as you are seeing in the oil market. also, you tend to save it does you are unsure about the economy. you spend it later. ryan: what will it take to crack the correlation? when does that start to break down. ? futures on the bloomberg are trading higher. because oil is higher. >> a lot of that has to be the market structure as well. who is trading in this market? the market has moved away from the fundamental guides. have volatility.

3:06 am
massachusetts and california minimum wage. a lot of it was driven by high wage earners and that increased the average hourly earnings. i don't think the fed will raise rates in march. if you look at the broader measure of unemployment come it is still at 9.9%. i think it is hard to justify given all of the data. tightening financial conditions. that makes me believe that the fed rate hike for march is off the table. you may get one in june. if we get a surprise in gdp growth, the fed will look into it but march is off the table. guy: let us dig more into the slack in the economy.
3:07 am

with his own policy measures. from -- sell more frontloading's from qe. he will have to come up with his own response. you cannot rely on the fed to do their work. weakening the euro more and more. guy: and the boj? we are trying to figure out how they fit together sequentially. interesting. the week before they said they are not going to do anything and then they came back and did it. easing is abank thing that will continue. there is no other option and the only game in town. unless you have concerted fiscal response coming from everywhere. we will see during the next meeting if there is some kind of coordination.
3:11 am
if we see some form of coordination which brings back gdp growth, the central banks can step back. unless we have that, the central banks are the only game in town. guy: this is the stoxx 600 chart. how significant is that? mid 1990's and this is 2005 and this is 2015. >> i would put it down to cycles. a correction cycle almost every three years. have one correction every three years. guy: are we going back down here? >> i don't think so.

3:17 am
what you think about the idea that opec countries could get together with non-opec countries and cut? do you see that happening? >> it has always been a possibility. it is only fair to stress that it seems to be the case a year ago. is saudi's said the market getting long and we are having to work together with everyone providing everyone takes their fair share of any change. obviously, it was not possible to do it then. opec was looking for cooperation inside opec as well as non-opec and that has not happened. it is not easy. the countries have different oil interests. of a big probability deal between opec and non-opec countries is what? >> come on. ryan: we want numbers.
3:18 am

3:19 am
producer. they will eventually -- others will go. ryan: is there readiness or more of a readiness in saudi arabia effortider a coordinated to reduce their own production? >> i am sure handled correctly they would still consider a coordinated cut. that is the point they have made, it has to be coordinated among everyone. so far, there has not been the willingness of everyone to do that. joins me now. a fantastic conversation. interesting to hear what he had to say about opec. he'll so had some interesting things to say about price. pretty bearish view. in the oil industry sees a recovery. it is beyond that where he says you have got this natural buffer

of shale producers coming back if prices rise allowing them to come back into the business plus the absence of china as a huge driver. really keeping prices down for an extended period of time. that was interesting. also saying he was not sure that the oil prices have bottomed out. this idea that even if, he assigned a much higher probability that i have ever heard anyone talk about, 40% for an opec, non-oil -- not opec deal, but even with that it does not change his fundamental view that we are in a low price range for a long while. marketsck look at the as we head into the break. we are seeing a little bit of a turnaround.
