Sorry- It was a late night…but watch natural gas
It was a late night for me watching election coverage so I’m taking a break on posting about the economy and your investments today.
But, as a heads up, the energy story has shifted from crude to natural gas.
Natural gas is up 63% for the year- a far bigger gain than what crude, which is allegedly a bubble, has tacked on so far this year.
(As an aside, if crude is a “bubble” because of its rise- then what is natural gas? A mega-bubble?)
There are real supply and demand issues with natural gas and prices continue to move higher.
What this means for consumers is higher gas bills to pay for that air conditioning all summer.
How can you invest in it?
The crude explorers are also natural gas explorers. The exploration companies will get double the gifts from Santa this quarter. As an investor, this kind of earnings scenario is very attractive.
And watch the weather. We have entered into hurricane season. Any kind of weather threat in the Gulf of Mexico will certainly push up crude, but also natural gas, prices.
