US job quality lacking; $40 oil prices insight, CIBC World
Markets Economics report says
TORONTO, April 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The latest CIBC World Markets'
Monthly Indicators Report for April 2004 highlights a lack of quality in recent
US jobs gains and a bullish view on energy prices, with $40 per barrel oil
prices.
On the US employment front, CIBC World Markets senior economists Avery Shenfeld
and Benjamin Tal report that "Not only are better quality jobs being lost, but
those without them are finding it harder to get back to work." The result, the
report says, is that US workers are either turning to self-employment options or
are settling for whatever they can get in terms of paid employment.
The report also features an article on recent trends in world oil demand and
production and raises the very real specter of $40 oil prices in the not-too
distant future. CIBC World Markets' Chief Economist Jeffrey Rubin and Senior
Economist Peter Buchanan suggest: "Depletionists, rather than pinning their
hopes on future cost-saving technological breakthroughs, see underlying resource
scarcity driving the global energy supply picture. If they're on the mark - as
appears increasingly likely - global conventional oil production should be
peaking at around the 65 million barrel daily level, raising the specter of $40
oil."
April's Monthly Indicator Report also features articles on the economic impacts
of upcoming elections in both the US and Canada. A copy of CIBC World Markets'
Monthly Indicators Report is available at http://www.cibcwm.com/research.
