>> for more on oil's big slide and what's next as energy remains under pressure, let's bring in john kilde. good to see you. do you think these declines will persist in terms of the price level and potentially demand as well? >> i think there is probably more downward pressure on the prices here in coming weeks. december, i believe that it's going to be a warmer month so that's going to help the heating situation in the united states and also abroad in europe. >> the question i have is this e-mail is not going to be as mild but we have a new weather pattern in the south pacific that should generate decent sized snowstorms, clips of a severe cold weather and a cold, wet spring so we'll have to see. but certainly for now, this is downward pressure because of a lack of political jitters. and the inability of opec to do much more than they're already trying to do to try to stabilize the price particularly when they have a tlhorn in their side wit the united states in terms of massive exports now. >> love the forecast. wet, cold, spring after a wet, cold, snowy winter. taking that into account
