Oil and Energy Stock Correlation [view article]
Good points.There are two other charts worth a visual:
1 year exxon, XOM, and 5 year XOM.
There is no sign of a bubble. It looks like a staircase and step 2 is within 5% of breaking down but until it does so the trend remains up.
If one looks at the width of the first step, the evidence seems to say that a 3rd step may be imminent. In recent days, XOM has been resisting the head fake WTI is presenting.
For all the talk about Traders manipulating the Oil complex, the biggest one of them all has been Congress. Reply

Long term fundamentals suggest there are good buying opportunities today on the recent pullback. ReplyEnergy Sector at Most Oversold Levels of Last 18 Months [view article]
That's funny,rhymes "when the recession is confirmed and priced in."Reply
Energy Sector at Most Oversold Levels of Last 18 Months [view article]
Stretch it out beyond 18 months and the chart paints a different picture...We've been in a crazy energy run for about 2 years now; a little pullback is to be expected.
However, depending on whether we're going to continue this energy run or just trade sideways, or whether this is going down like the rest of the market when recession is confirmed and priced in, is the real unknown here.
In the last 18 months, energy sector is on a run that assumes prices always go up and demand will continue to be tight. If recession or depression becomes reality, the demand will continue to slacken as prices drops -- and that's the risk for this sector. Reply

Thanks for the advisement. You saved me a heart attack! ReplyBarclays Global ETFs: iShares Doing the Splits [view article]
How would a 3:1 split on FXI relate to FXP, the ProShares 2:1 inverse of FXI?Also, how would a 3:1 split affect puts in FXI?
I would appreciate your insight on these questions. Reply
The 'Peak Oil' Myth: New Oil Is Plentiful [view article]
Peak oil is about oil production, not about estimated oil in stone.Current production is around 85 million bbls per day. Low end of estimated yearly production decrease per field: 5%. This means that about 4 million bbls per day of new production is needed each year. That means 40 increases of 100,000 bbls per day each.

While I would always like to buy at the bottom and sell at the top, no one can do that. But, I don't let this downturn bother me too much as I know where it is going...up. ReplyEnergy Sector Declines [view article]
The $58 million Pickens is spending to promote expanding our domestic energy resources is an excellent example of this. He is only hyping solar and wind energy as ancillary to his belief that U.S. natural gas in the form of CNG is the best substitute for foreign oil to fuel our nation's existing vehicle fleet. ReplyEnergy Sector Declines [view article]
Solar, wind, oil, coal, nuclear, et al, are ALL far from done. There's NO bubble here. Just a worldwide energy shortage, being led by the political Know Nothings, which is not about to abate.Incidentally, these are COMPLIMENTARY, not COMPETITIVE investments, at this time. While the market will eventually sort out the real winners from the pretenders, it is FAR TOO EARLY to even begin considering making such calls now.

PowerShares WilderHill Clean Energy ETF: Leverage Through Volatility [view article]
Great Article!! You are absolutely right about how terrorists might create the most damage to the USA, without even coming here... They could cut off the life-blood of our economy altogether from the other side of the planet, sending the oil addicted USA into oiloholic DT's, where we would long for the good ol' days when spOIL was surging ever upward$, but was at least still available below $200/barrel. The whole US economy would totally shut down in a week if the Cracker Jack Nut-Job in Iran shut down the Straight of Hormuz, and 40% of the world's spOIL exports. Are we suckers just waiting for the sucker punch that we know will probably come??I'm all for getting "OFF THE GRID" with Clean Energy ETF's like PBW. I rate PBW a STRONG BUY & HOLD, until the sucker punch comes.
How about a "GET OFF THE GRID" home-based Ultra Power ETF??? When the sucker punch comes, it will be good to be able to not have to depend on infrastructure at all, including wind-farms with transmission lines. I like the Roof Mounted Solar Panels & Wind Turbines Concept, where the electric company has to pay you by law if you generate more electricity than you use... turn back the electric meter and the clock on the emminent destruction of America as we know it by becoming as independent as possible, and showing others how to do the same.
Kudos to the Author of this Great Article, and to T Boone Pickens for raising awareness of the urgency of the energy emergency.
When "OFF THE GRID" Ultra Power ETF comes, please let US know!! Reply

Well.. Maybe not 'this' indicator... But stochastics, MACD and ADX all point to lower. A trendline drawn on the bottoms of Jan 08 and Mar 08 on "DIG" suggest a $78 bottom as opposed to todays $91.Hope I'm wrong! Thx jegan ;-) Reply

please stop pumping SOL. ReplyEnergy Sector Takes a Hit [view article]
In a bear market, all sectors have to go down. Energy was a outlier and now is turning mainstream. Reply
