The Good, The Bad, And the Inaccurate Oil Forecasts
In the stock and commodities markets it is usually easier to predict WHAT is
going to happen than WHEN it is going to happen.
The next terrorist attack of scale will drive oil over $100. Sure. But when?
2009 Oil Forecast Down to $50 - TD Newcrest
Provident Energy Trust: Income for Today and Tomorrow
Great article. My thanks to everyone who posted comments.
They are lucid, reassuring, and useful.
People who like the Canroys come across as a decent bunch.
Geologist: In Terms of Supply and Demand, the Oil Peak Is Past
Great article. As usual, comments are even better than the article.
The talking heads on TV make it sound as though oil will be replaced by the alternatives, tomorrow, or next week at latest. Meanwhile, don't invest in a buggywhip factory as we said in the 30s.
Oil will be around until affordable alternatives get here.
The Market's View on Oil
Maybe oil goes to $30 as one gentleman wrote yesterday.......and maybe all our cars will run on moonbeams.
Meanwhile, Pelosi sabotages all attempts at American energy independence.
So I will stick with T. Boone until the string runs out.
CANROYs Remain Attractive as Oil-Related Investments
The geopolitical forces are at work on oil prices. Canada with secondary and tertiary recoveries is a great blessing to the States. Canroys make lots of mistakes, but get bailed out by high crude prices. At their worst, most are still good investments. The old "businessman's risk" as Forbes Mag. used to say.
Thanks, write more.
$200 Oil: Before Decade's End, Not Year's
Exceellent article. The comments are even better, except for the confused fellow re: decade.
Nobody Cares How the Energy Crisis Gets Solved
There are plenty of people here who would be perfectly happy to see gasoline at $9 to $11 a gallon "just like in Europe". They figure then people would drive less and "quit destroying mother earth...".
It is true that as prices slide, people use more...they want cheap gasoline.
California gas is formulated to pollute less, but it tends to give very poor mileage...so to make up for the loss of mileage you have to buy more gas. It is a delight to go to Arizona or Nevada, and load up gas...it gives better mileage, and costs about 50-55 cents per gallon less.
T. Boone has some pretty good ideas, but they won't solve the "crisis".
Oil Prices, Global GDP, and Net Oil Exports
An extremely helpful article. The chart is breathtaking.
If you believe that in the oil markets prices are set at
the margins, then higher prices can be anticipated.
UBS Analyst: Energy Trusts Offer Exceptional Value
These stocks are pink sheet in U.S., but trade legitimately on the Canadian exchange--Toronto I think.
Vermilion has assets in France, which if a negative to me because of French labor laws. Crescent is certainly a "Businessman's Risk", as the old Forbes magazine used to say.
Confirmatory Bias and Oil Investing
Gas Lines Coming This Fall
America has a problem that is not, at bottom, an energy problem.
America is in a chaotic state of denial, and lacks any concensus, any focussing of the political will of this country to do what is necessary to survive. Our present course is suicidal.
Czarist Russia in February 1917 had an implosion, not a Revolution. The government could not function, and the bread riots followed the pattern of the bread riots of the French Revolution over 100 years earlier. The Czar left the scene.
October, 1917, was not a Revolution, as advertised, but a short-lived coup d'etat by the Bolsheviks. The actual Revolution started a bit later when ordinary people realized their country had been hijacked. The Bolsheviks re-named themselves "Communists" in a PR move, in case you forgot.
When the bread riots and the gasoline riots start in America, this will signal the beginning of the end. It will be war. As a Russian military instructor taught, "War is War...War is kill or be killed."
Want to survive? Buy into companies outside the U.S.A. Brazil and Canada come to mind.
The Long Case for Canadian Oil Sands Trust
The comments are a bit more interesting and informative than the article. Keep up the good work.
RBC Upgrades Canadian Natural Resources; Downgrades Nexen
Oil at New Highs: Heading to the Exit Lane
Maybe "You just can't get to the post office from here." Or more likely, a lack of political leadership to lay out the alternatives to the public, develop a national dialogue, and make decisions.
