OPEC violating production quotas at the same time as demand from industrialized nations stagnates is spurring bets in the oil market that the 13-month rally in crude is coming to an end. It's a bubble and we don't know when it's going to go bust, but it's just a question of time,' said Eugen Weinberg, a senior analyst with Commerzbank AG in Frankfurt. 'So enjoy the party but stay close to the door.' U.S. demand will drop 9.4 percent to average 18.84 million barrels a day this year, from a record 20.8 million in 2005, the Energy Department said on April 6. The U.S. uses more than twice as much crude as China, the second-biggest consumer. India is fourth. Crude oil is trading at $83.40 as of 21:25pm, London-Time, with a bearish trend. Crude's Pool-Position is 33% Long, meaning that most Finotec clients are selling the commodity.
