Energies

Energies, especially crude oil, are rarely out of the news. Energies are innately volatile markets because of the direct impact world events can have on supply.

Our Energies contracts are based on NYMEX® Crude Oil and Natural Gas Futures.

Example
Crude Oil

Energy Trading

Crude oil

Crude oil is the world’s most traded energy: a commodity in constant high demand but with a delicate supply chain.

New oil reserves can drive the price down, while adverse weather, spills and diplomatic spats can raise the price.

  • Russia and Saudi Arabia produce about 25% of the world’s crude oil
  • China and the USA consume more crude oil than any other country
  • In 2009 it was estimated our crude oil reserves would last 44 years

Example
Natural Gas

Trading Energies

Natural gas

Compared to oil and other fuels like coal, relatively little is known about how much natural gas actually exists.

Supply uncertainty, along with new exploration methods and environmental pressures, can lead to price volatility.

  • Russia has the world’s largest proven reserves of natural gas
  • 90% of the natural gas consumed in the U.S. is locally produced
  • Natural gas is safe, affordable and the cleanest-burning fossil fuel
