Billionaire oil tycoon Boone Pickens, chairman of BP Capital, predicts oil will reach $75 a barrel within a year and go back up to $140 a barrel when the global economy turns around.
Pickens told CNBC importing 70 percent of our oil poses a significant threat to the U.S. economy, and he expects energy independence has a better chance under the Obama administration.
Pickens is taking his renewable energy plan—the "Pickens Plan"—back to Capitol Hill today. He forecasts his plan will create 138,000 jobs within a year and 5 million jobs within 10 years.
Trading oil futures is a very risky business. Be sure to risk only capital you can afford to lose. And off course, look for the lowest comissions.
