Virginia is wrapping up its worst week to date in terms of new COVID-19 cases and reported deaths, but Friday data show a couple of signs that the recent surge may at least have hit a plateau.

"We may have hit a plateau on coupon auction sizes, but Thursday’s announcement by President-Elect Biden regarding his plans for another round of stimulus may change that outlook," said Thomas Simons, senior money market economist at Jefferies.

Analysts have already indicated a possible peak oil investment scenario, but that has been countered by many claiming that renewables will make up for losses. The reality, however, is very worrying. Demand for crude oil, natural gas, and petroleum products is going to hit a plateau in the coming decades, but it will still likely reach a level of more than 108-110 million bpd for a long period of time.
