Someone Has to Lend in 2009: Ideas to Profit

#3 refers to Gold vs. all currencies..but I'll bite...Oil will rise
against all currencies because the holders of this finite resource will do the math...it actually pays them long term to withhold what we want....time is on their side....
When I write the things in my articles I ALWAYS do so from the perspective of an analyst. I'm NOT advocating that these are the best outcomes..I'm simply telling you that..from my perspective..these are the LIKELY outcomes. Investing is no different from going to Las Vegas..you can hit a jackpot and be smart enough to quit..or you can drink too much and feed the casinos...
As for LINE and LGCY and other oil/gas plays I emphasize...My point is to shpw that at the end of the day you're far better off getting a very substantial distribution supported by a reliable cash flow. For those who are near retirement (5 yrs or less) aim at the distribution rate of your investments...you won't become hostage to the price...

Oil and Natural Gas Will Decouple - Big Time

Hello..this is Greg Pinelli..the GeoRealist. Thanks for all you insightful comments. My objective in the next few postings will be to provide you with a different way of looking at things. The only real way to make money investing is to think differently..and that, hopefully, can be advanced here.
Please watch oil sands..oil shale..especially in Alberta very closely. Alberta is becomeing a very environmentally activist province..and the least of the oil sand..tar sands problems will be plentiful nat gas. Water is critical..that without which nothing is possible!

Oil and Natural Gas Will Decouple - Big Time

Ellwodo and Jack..Greg Pinelli here. Devon is fine..LINE actually acquired some of Devon's properties. My objective in highlighting PWE and LINE is that they are the most aggressive of their particular groups (Canadian Ryalties and Publically Traded Partnerships respectively). Liquified will probably fit into the equation somewhere..the problem is there are greater political hurdles due to environmental concerns than for anything else...although concerns over nuclear power are a close second. It should be pointed out that many Asian countries are developing nuclear plants at an incredible rate. When the time is right watch for a political about face....how about when oil is $175 and Nat Gas $25!

Oil and Natural Gas Will Decouple - Big Time

Ernie..this is Greg Pinelli the GeoRealist....your observations are accurate. Another kicker for nat gas is that it fuels a considerable portion of the electrical grid...and between now and peoples fantasy fuel of the future we'll likely get the plug in hybrid or just straight plug ins. In two years we'll look back at Nat Gas at $8.00 much like $12.00 oil....long gone and the bargain of a lifetime.
