WTI is the highest it's been in a very long time ... . You can naturally play /CL directly or use USO Here, I would buy 2 x the 72's in July and sell the 62, with the result being a break even where the stock is currently trading. I would go longer-dated in this particular case to allow shale to get back in the game, U.S. production to increase somewhat toward pre-pandemic levels, and stockpiles to build.
