So where is crude oil going next? After the surge towards $150 earlier this year, it has now fallen to around $60 a barrel.
And following OPEC's recent decision to only cut production by 1.5 million barrels a day, it seems the price of crude will remain weak in the short term.

As you know oil prices have been falling precipitously over the past few months which is why I think it's a good idea to post the above chart to help put things into perspective.

Crude oil jumped more then $2 Monday, as investors anticipate that OPEC will cut oil output in order to bring oil prices back to normal levels. Oil prices have dropped nearly 50 percent since July on economic concerns. Deutsche Bank AG recently lowered its 2009 crude-oil estimates to $60 a barrel citing the possibility of a global economic recession.
David Callaway points out that oil’s failure to reach $200 a barrel — it is now sitting in the low 70s after collapsing from $145 — is suggestive that the current economic gloom will not reach apocalyptic proportions. There is a good probability that Callaway is right – in the short term.

Yesterday NYMEX light, sweet crude fell to $125.63 a barrel, a drop of over $20 from its $147 high set on 11 July.

What are the major types of crude oil? Crude oil is classified as 'sweet' and 'sour', depending upon its sulphur content. Sweet crude has less than 0.5 per cent sulphur content whereas sour crude has more than 0.5 per cent. Sour crude oils are cheaper than the sweeter variety. They are more complex and expensive to refine. Some of the well-known varieties of crude oil are Brent (sweet), Dub
