6月27日，經(jīng)歷了一周的迅猛上漲之后，紐約原油期貨價(jià)格突破60美元大關(guān)。推動(dòng)油價(jià)走高的因素仍然是市場(chǎng)對(duì)全球第四季度取暖油供應(yīng)的擔(dān)憂，此外市場(chǎng)對(duì)取暖油的炒作也推波助瀾。外電報(bào)道如下：Oil
prices settled at a record high above $60 a barrel on Monday, reflecting
traders' concerns about strong demand and potential supply
bottlenecks.
With $60 no longer a threshold - and with continued concerns about
refining capacities - prices appeared set to go even higher, analysts
said.
Oil broker Tom Bentz at BNP Paribas Commodity Futures in New York said
Monday's rally was just a continuation of the larger uptrend that began in
late May.
Bentz said there is also a speculative component to the surge in oil
prices, though he also believes that the world's limited excess production
and refining capacity have played important roles in keeping traders on
edge about potential supply disruptions.
Threshold在此表示“上限，極限”，此外還有“門檻；起點(diǎn)；開(kāi)端；最低限度”等含義，例如：The sound was so loud it
was on the threshold of pain（聲音大得開(kāi)始使人無(wú)法忍受。） a low threshold of pain（一碰就痛）。
據(jù)悉，盡管歐佩克組織6月15日會(huì)議已做出日增產(chǎn)決定，然而市場(chǎng)對(duì)此認(rèn)為，歐佩克決定增產(chǎn)不過(guò)是對(duì)前期已經(jīng)超產(chǎn)部分的承認(rèn)，市場(chǎng)的供應(yīng)并沒(méi)有實(shí)際性的增加。而需求方面，美國(guó)目前處于汽油需求的高峰季節(jié)，取暖油通常在第四季度才是需求旺季，而貿(mào)易商關(guān)注的焦點(diǎn)卻集中在取暖油方面，炒作心理較強(qiáng)。隨著國(guó)際大型投資基金的重新返回市場(chǎng)，加劇了油價(jià)漲跌的波瀾壯闊。
