Oil prices could fall to the low $40s if they can't hold above the critical $52 level, and several factors are raising the risk of that occurring, John Kilduff told CNBC on Thursday.
Despite these triggers, oil is currently having its best start to a year ever since commodity watchers began recording its price data in 1983. The commodity, which slipped by over 2 percent Friday, fell as low as $42.36 amid a marketwide sell-off in December 2018. As for India and Pakistan's nuclear conflict, Kilduff said that"any kind of conflagration in Asia, whether it be limited to India and Pakistan or spread to any degree to the region, would harm the economic activity there and that would only hasten the demand crisis that you could see here for oil prices in the near future."
But all of these global factors are eroding the rally's durability, and if the world's top oil producers don't work together to offset the United States' record crude production, it could spell trouble for prices, the market-watcher warned.

Coachella says it’s safe for LGBTQ people, but transgender siblings say they were denied restroom accessTwo Orange County siblings — one a transgender woman, the other who identifies as transmasculine and presents as male — say they were denied access to restrooms that corresponded to their gender identities at the 2018 festival. The ACLU is demanding change. I haven’t been in a few years but I remember all the restrooms being porta potty’s? Wish LATimes would interview any number of abused women the ACLU has been ignoring for 20 years. 2,000 women killed in the U.S. in 2015, but let’s litigate, bathrooms! Why? Bigger donations from double income gays than women trapped in a patriarchal system. ACLU went for the 💰 Geez.
