ULSD is of particular interest in the energy markets for the following reasons:
• It is quoted based on delivery at New York Harbor. This means that it has localized supply / demand factors related to the Eastern United states. Data shows supply is particularly tight at this location.
• Traders are exporting virtually all US oil overseas due to the spread between WTI and Brent
• No tankers set to deliver low sulfur distillates to New York Harbor for over a month.
On top of these factor, there's a clear support zone at the current price. Given that simple technicals are lining up with fundamentals, the trade seems favorable. Major risk factors include OPEC+ meeting, however I speculate that OPEC will not increase supply due to negative data regarding oil consumption.
