moreI am retired apart from managing family investments - mostly equities. I live near Zurich, Switzerland. I keep physically fit by walking and mentally fit with an art hobby and by writing on philosophy, economics and politics as related to cleaning up our polluted planet. My writings are published internationally.
As a retired businessman with a passion for drawing, who has lived on four continents, I long ago started to appreciate the natural beauty that surrounds us - the enormous variety of colours, flora, fauna and topography and the impact that has had on cultures and peoples. Most of us view that beauty without really seeing it and for thousands of years artists have tried to capture it and thus, teach us the art of seeing. My email address is jbhanshaw@gmail. com

You watch those things closer than I but some like banning gas use in buildings cannot happen as there is nothing to replace it. Electrical supply systems are already stretched beyind breaking point. https://seekingalpha.com/article/4450930-evs-driving-us-back-to-the-future
Oil is something else and I do not invest in that.
US LNG exports are my main bet (plus hydrogen)and the US has a big LNG price advantage.

US Dollar Breaks Below 90 – Continues To Confirm Depreciation Cycle Phase
Not long ago the US labelled Switzerland - among others - as a currency manipulator. Switzerland has the strongest currency in the world and only tries to stop it appreciating even more against ever depreciating currencies like the euro and USD.
A manipulator is usually applied to countries that try to lower the value of their currency. The USD is a long term decliner against the SFR; https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/USDCHF/

The Euro Is In Crash Territory
Since I wrote this article Mario Draghi has become the new PM of Italy. When he was the head of the ECB he said he would do whatever it takes to save the euro. It will be interesting to see how he can now save the failed state of Italy that the euro contributed to the destruction of AND not damage the euro in doing so because the two things simply cannot be done while the euro remains Italy’s currency.
