In a word, no. After you
read about the hilarious Oct 2004 call by some right wing tool, saying that the "oil bubble" that had then drove prices to $50/bbl was about to burst, you may begin to understand that not all price rises, even sharp price rises, are bubbles. The key component in the formation and discernment of a bubble is leverage, borrowing, credit being deployed in the service of the bubble. This has not happened here-yet; NYMEX raised oil margins 17 months ago, and held them study, and I have yet to see any storefront oil futures brokers open up offering subprime margin loans for oil trading. No bubble yet, maybe when oil reaches Goldman's $200 target, maybe not even then.
