Natural Gas Production Outlook: Decreases Are in the Offing

Perhaps it is the other way around. The availability of cheap NG to power our factories will increase US production of products at home?

Oil to Natural Gas Price Ratio

We are the Saudi Arabia of NG. With the new technology of extracting NG from shale we have it coming out of our ears and almost no place to store it. See link below.

Now we have to develop the NG transmission system to move it from the well to the user. The Northeast, US, as an example, uses heating oil to heat most of their homes. Pennsylvania is the closest NG rock shale to the NE US. If the energy department, our President and congress wanted to stimulate the economy and reduce our dependence on foreign oil, they would propose and support the building of a NG pipeline from, Pennsylvania to New England and give a rebates to each home owner who turned in their oil burning furnace for a NG burning furnace. This is a “no brainer.” It would:
1) Create American jobs; short-term engineering and building the pipeline and long term operating the pipeline.
2) Reduce our dependence on foreign oil homes would not be using oil for fuel.
3) Reduce global warming as NG emits much less CO2 than oil.

Stewart vs. Cramer: A Cheap Shot

...Cramer agreed with and admitted to almost everything Stewart was putting out. Cramer was apologetic and contrite. Like a little boy who was sent to the principal's office for misbehaving in class...

I agree, why was Jim so meek and mild! If someone blindsided me as he did Cramer I would want a little piece of him. I have made a lot of money starting with Cramer's advice and then agreeing or disagreeing with him based on my research.

Stewart vs. Cramer: A Cheap Shot

...JNH, No one profits from CNBC guests. CNBC reporters aren't allowed to own individual stocks. It doesn't matter to them who comes on, they can't do anything about it.

Not true go to their website and it is sdisclosed who owns what, even for Jim Cramer.

California OKs Controversial SDG&E Transmission Project

...upgrading and building new transmissions to replace the United States' aging electric grid...

Being as transmission lines are made out of aluminum and also lighter weigh cars will use less steel and more aluminum, I shorted X and bought AA this week. Good play.

Mad Money Manual - Cramer's Mad Money (8/28/08)

"Veryold" you are also wise! I listen to Cramer and study not only his recommendations but also his reasoning for a recommendation. Then I look at the stock. I have made a lot of money off Cramer's recommendations.
The ones that criticize him should consider his recommendations as potential short plays.

Bullish on China After My Recent Visit

Great article!
Been there, once with a "commoner and once with an entrepreneur The commoner had a wife and child and could barely keep up with expenses. The entrepreneuwas buying real estate and a factory all with money lent to him by the government at 2%. With inflation running at a 6% to 9% rate that bubble has to bust!
Also, China is feeding 25% (and rising) of the world’s people with 7% of the world’s agricultural land. That too will soon become a problem.
