The Price Increases Will Continue Until Supply Responds. AIA Weekly Report 5-21-22

May 23, 2022 23:03 - 27 minutes - 24.9 MB

We are having inflation in fuel and food mostly because we do not have enough of these materials.  Yes, the monetary malfeasance of central banks has contributed to the price increases.   Nevertheless, we simply do not have enough oil and refined products to meet demand. The same is going to happen to food.

Can We Hit A $150/bbl Plus Oil Price This Summer?

May 08, 2022 22:03 - 47 minutes - 43.6 MB

Russia Demands Rubles For Gas. Will The EU Comply? AIA Weekly 4-2-22.

April 02, 2022 14:48 - 50 minutes - 46.6 MB

Not sure the EU politicians contemplated that when they put sanctions on Russia because of its invasion of Ukraine they would experience any repercussions.    Russia is now demanding payment for the gas, and I suspect other commodities in the future, in rubles.

We Are Governed By Idiots. AIA Weekly 3-12-22

March 13, 2022 17:27 - 49 minutes - 45.8 MB

The Biden Administration has recently gone hat in hand to Venezuela to try and get more crude oil as gas prices surge.   This is after demonizing US-based oil producers who are reluctant to raise production as the administration has watched up regulations on American-based oil production.   Now we have calls for windfall profit taxes on oil companies as Putin not dumb policies is blamed for higher US gasoline prices.

Russia is unable to increase production. Where will oil supply come from as the pandemic recedes?

January 30, 2022 14:25 - 21 minutes - 19.6 MB

As we have discussed in previous videos, I believe the biggest catalyst for higher oil prices this year is the coming market realization that OPEC+ will not be able to meet the call for supply.   As the pandemic recedes and oil demand not only equals but exceeds pre-pandemic levels it will become apparent that there is not enough oil to supply the world's demand. This will result in oil prices above $100/bbl.

December 19, 2021 16:29 - 47 minutes - 44 MB

www.actionableintelligencealert.com   "Every day, headlines and stories reinforce the thesis that oil is in a multi-year bull market.   It’s time for investors to connect the dots… the world is hurtling toward an oil crisis.   A growing population and rising standards of living, combined with the lack of alternatives to oil in the short-term in the transportation sector, suggests demand for the commodity will continue to grow for years to come."

December 05, 2021 01:45 - 34 minutes - 32 MB

www.actionableintelligencealert.com   Yes, markets have been terrible the last few weeks. And yes the negative sentiment could persist through yearend.    However ask yourself, has anything fundamentally changed? Did anyone announce new uranium mines?

What Caused The Selloff in Oil This Week? Am I Worried? AIA Weekly Report 11-20-21

November 20, 2021 14:48 - 38 minutes - 35.8 MB

www.actionableintelligencealert.com   Oil sold off for various reasons this week. It was overbought and sentiment had become too bullish. Seasonality, SPR release jawboning by the Biden regime, higher dollar, are among the reasons.   I still believe we are in an energy bull market due to chronic underinvestment that has restricted supply and will be exacerbated by ESG which will cause permitting, and financing issues for new fossil fuel projects.

Gold stocks which are unloved and underfollowed post nice week. Is gold back on speculators radar?

November 13, 2021 17:15 - 43 minutes - 40.2 MB

www.actionableintelligencealert.com   The CPI came in at a hot 6.2% this week.

This bodes well for further price gains.

More Evidence For Higher Energy Prices (Energy Crunch)

August 29, 2021 13:59 - 35 minutes - 32.9 MB

With the current version of the pandemic beginning to recede, we will see continued increases in oil demand by the end of the year. With inventories already below the five-year average expect higher oil prices by year-end.   Bank of America and Goldman are saying $80 oil by the end of the year. Cash flows are already exploding higher at many oil companies. Yet investors are shying away from buying them. Are they missing a huge opportunity?

IPCC Report Says We Are Facing A Grim Climate Future. This Means Higher Energy Prices.

August 15, 2021 15:34 - 32 minutes - 30.1 MB

The recent IPCC report is again ramping up climate hysteria. This is going to help re-enforce calls to get to net-zero carbon emission (whatever that means).    Look for more demonization of fossil fuels and calls to limit its supply. I think this leads to less supply of energy. As energy is critical to every part of the economy does it not make sense that energy prices will skyrocket?   I expect an energy crisis and higher energy stock prices.

Famous Warren Buffett quote that is applicable to the current situation in the uranium and resource stocks.    Lots of people have been pushed out of the market as sentiment has swings from bullish to bearish regarding the relation trade.    It is important to note why you have bought these stocks and then determine if the why has changed. If not then calm down and look for opportunities to buy from the bargain bin.

Make Volatility In Uranium Stocks Your Friend

July 10, 2021 19:11 - 50 minutes - 46.6 MB

We are witnessing a pullback in uranium stocks as prices have gotten way ahead of fundamentals.    We have seen this in uranium before during the last bullmarket. It happens in all cyclical stocks.   I show the example of a uranium stock in the last bullmarket that went from under a dollar to nine dollars in three years. Along the way, the stock had several 50% plus drawdowns.    In a bullmarket you buy the dips. That can only happen if you have conviction in the story. Conviction comes f...
