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

Natural Gas Approaching Key Short-Term Support Level
#LING export projects in Australia have had troubles getting new orders for some time due to price pressure from the US. Cheniere Energy, LNG, has contracts to deliver to Singapore and Indonesia - both on Australia?s doorstep. LNG, the company, has been my best investment ever - I bought in at $3.42. $LNG
Natural Gas Approaching Key Short-Term Support Level
Good article. I tend to look at other things and this adds to those. I just read news that Cheniere Energy is about to ship #LNG from the US to the Middle East where there is plenty of nat gas. Apparently there has been insufficient investment to exploit that while demand has increased significantly locally. It also shows how competitive US shale gas is.
Bakken Update: Well Economics Are Improving As Costs Decrease And Enhanced Completions Improve Production, Part 2
Good article, thank you. I read in the Financial Times recently that break-even prices in the SCOOP and STACK are down to around $35-$39 per barrel. This is highly significant when considering that break-even prices in countries like Saudi have to take into account national budget issues and they need around $90 to break-even. Many #OPEC producers need that figure or more.
I use to own $CLR and will probably buy back in again soon.
