3 Motivation Explaining the price of oil
4 Motivation Explaining the price of oil Oil as exhaustible resource [Hotelling, 1931] Macroeconomic supply and demand frameworks [Krichene, 2002; Dees et al., 2007] Informal view [Dees et al., 2008; Kaufmann and Ullmann, 2009] Three Epochs of Oil [Dvir and Rogoff, 2009]
5 Motivation Explaining the price of oil Oil as exhaustible resource [Hotelling, 1931] Macroeconomic supply and demand frameworks [Krichene, 2002; Dees et al., 2007] Informal view [Dees et al., 2008; Kaufmann and Ullmann, 2009] Three Epochs of Oil [Dvir and Rogoff, 2009] Forecasting the price of oil
6 Motivation (continued)
7 Motivation (continued) Trends in the price of oil
8 Motivation (continued) Trends in the price of oil Deterministic [Slade, 1982; Lee et al., 2006] vs. stochastic trends [Slade, 1988]
9 Motivation (continued) Trends in the price of oil Deterministic [Slade, 1982; Lee et al., 2006] vs. stochastic trends [Slade, 1988] Theoretical implications of the price of oil
10 Motivation (continued) Trends in the price of oil Deterministic [Slade, 1982; Lee et al., 2006] vs. stochastic trends [Slade, 1988] Theoretical implications of the price of oil Scarcity indicator [Krautkraemer, 1998; Holland, 2008] Optimal depletion paths [Hotelling, 1931; Sinn, 2008]
11 Motivation (continued) Changes in the real price of oil have [...] tended to be (1) permanent, (2) difficult to predict, and (3) governed by very different regimes at different points in time [Hamilton, 2008]
12 Motivation (continued) Changes in the real price of oil have [...] tended to be (1) permanent, (2) difficult to predict, and (3) governed by very different regimes at different points in time [Hamilton, 2008] [...] many economists often think of oil prices as historically having been influenced little or none at all by the issue of exhaustibility. [Hamilton, 2008]

16 Descriptive Analysis (continued)
17 Descriptive Analysis (continued) The oil price exhibits financial market data characteristics
18 Descriptive Analysis (continued) The oil price exhibits financial market data characteristics Large oil price movements are not unlikely due to small price elasticities of both oil supply and demand

47 Conclusions Applying Chan and Maheu s (2002) method yields strong evidence of conditional jump behavior of the price of oil The oil price does not settle around a long-run trend Both finding optimal depletion paths and the transition to alternative technologies is hampered
48 Conclusions Applying Chan and Maheu s (2002) method yields strong evidence of conditional jump behavior of the price of oil The oil price does not settle around a long-run trend Both finding optimal depletion paths and the transition to alternative technologies is hampered The apparent non-existence of a long-run trend leads to a current overextraction of oil
