In this concise video segment, Bob Fraser outlines an oil investment thesis that does not rely on short‑term price predictions. He argues that (1) global oil production has suffered from a 7‑8‑year period of under‑investment, leaving insufficient capacity to replace existing output; (2) oil demand remains robust and shows no sign of declining in the near term; and (3) oil assets are currently priced at historic lows, making them unusually cheap. Fraser cautions investors not to bet on specific price levels but to expect an upward price trend as the current supply glut is worked off, driven by the investment shortfall and strong demand.

Chapters

You never really know what the price of oil is, is going to, is going to bear, which is why our thesis is not based on that. It's based on one, globally there has not been enough investment over the last, you know, 7 to 8 years to replace existing production. Number, number one. Number, number two, oil demand is not going down. We're not seeing that going down anytime soon. And number three, oil assets are the cheapest they, they've been in decades. And so you can, you can play this market, but don't bank on— don't, don't try and tell me what oil prices are going to be, right? We do believe that because of the lack of investment, there is going to be an upward trend in prices once the current glut is, is burned off. So that's our thesis.
