Discounts should come in.... Looks like maybe it's started
From the IV Energy Investing board...
Canadian crude and condensate benchmark prices all surged today, as futures rolled into the January contract on Friday.
WCS gained almost 50% as the discount to WTI narrowed from US$43 a barrel to US$36.30. The discount on Canadian Light narrowed by almost US$8, while the C5+ discount narrowed by US$4.
Meanwhile WCS in the Gulf Coast is probably trading at a hefty premium to WTI. Mexican Maya was $62US yesterday. The super low discounts on condensate actually helped Crude by Rail economics a lot.
