money market assets percentage of fund assets

you'll find articles that indicate there are $3.46 trillion in mutual funds and $1.26 trillion in money market funds. The ratio is 36.4%.

Someone may want to comment on whether the money market funds are included in the mutual fund assets or not in either the above graph or in the articles found.]]> Thu, 09 Oct 2008 20:38:45 -0400

This is the perfect example for the government to step in a front the costs of adding NG to every gas station. With the lower cost, people will buy it, since there is really no downside consumers will see. ]]> Tue, 26 Aug 2008 07:42:48 -0400

The electric expense relative to a refinery? BZZZT. If consumers can buy a garage version to fill their own car, the industry can afford larger compressors.

Tank inspections? If NG becomes popular, go back to the car dealer for the 3yr inspection- they have to service them anyway .

Would secretaries rather sit in front of a Molotov cocktail? Please, let's not scare people out of Home Depot because of a propane forklift that might blow up. I'd believe more injury from a loose tank being propelled, but not by fire or explosion. That's only in the movies.

The cost for tanks is cheaper now.

I agree the biggest problem is no NG stations. But there weren't diesel pumps before, either. ]]> Mon, 04 Aug 2008 13:07:26 -0400 NG) vehicles, too, I disagree with Scott.

The first sentence has the hint why they weren't massively popular - it isn't the acceptance, cost, driveability, or maintenance. It's the fuel distribution to customers. Fleets can afford to have their own refueling station and until there is a convenient NG station at every corner, people aren't going to convert older cars or buy new NG cars.

There are no NG "refineries." As such, there is a huge cost savings and I'm willing to let market forces compete for my dollar, which will keep prices low. Plus, having two vehicle fuel supplies will keep the US economy on steady footing - gee, imagine having a choice when Iranian oil is embargoed after their first nuclear underground test.

When you calculate the KWh to replace 100 billion gallons (US annual gasoline consumption) let us know how the electric grid can handle it. Also, given that electricity can't yet be stored easily or efficiently, it will be a nice second or third alternative but not primary. There is yet no way to store wind or sun, like you can coal, oil, or NG. ]]> Mon, 04 Aug 2008 11:34:22 -0400

However, having been a lubricant formulator in a past life, CNG is a wonderful fuel in regards to engine life, engine cleanliness, higher octane, etc. Ford used to sell Crown Vics with CNG conversions. The technology is there, the only part missing is the distribution system for consumers. From an oil company employee perspective, this ought to be the leading choice by far, and should have been promoted before the use of corn-based ethanol. ]]> Mon, 28 Jul 2008 09:01:39 -0400

And because electricity growth outside the US is now the same as coal growth the price of coal is less an immediate supply-demand issue, but perhaps more a global growth proxy. ESKOM is going to buy expensive coal long before they build a nuclear power plant.]]> Sat, 14 Jun 2008 09:09:37 -0400
