I used to joke that the most important thing I learned from my research was never to attempt to forecast the price of oil. As 2014 comes to a close, the price of oil has just crossed the $100 threshold again – this time headed down.
我曾经开玩笑说，从我的研究中学到的最重要事情就是千万不要试图预测石油价格。随着2014年接近尾声，石油价格再次回到100美元关口&mdash;&mdash;但这一次是下跌。2015年将要面对几大问题之一就是油价是否将继续下降。纵使我之前的说法有点玩世不恭，但我觉得这次自己能找到答案。
