The accompanying chart presents an 8-week analysis of global coal futures prices as a follow-up to my previous 5-month analysis last month, Market Vectors Coal ETF (KOL), PowerShares Global Coal ETF (PKOL), S&P 500 ETF (SPY), U.S. Natural Gas (UNG) + Oil (USO) Funds, and the Energy Sector ETF (XLE). The global price of coal is tracked by the near-month coal futures contracts from the U.S. (QL – Central Appalachian NYMEX Coal Futures), South Africa (AFR – Richards Bay ICE Coal Futures), and Eur

Although Exxon Mobil (XOM) is down about 20% in the past year, it has overtaken PetroChi
Some might say that the customers are working in a way that reduce per person energy consumption. But with the level of the oil and other energies, Exxon Mobil is in a very good place to create tremendous value for investors. Having the largest market cap and private oil reserves, XOM has produced growing net income with a much lower barrel price. Exxon is actually trading around 81$ and it had traded briefly at time amount acouple of time in the last year. When you look at a chart of XOM over the DBO ETF, you clearly see that Exxon, have not acted in sync with oil prices, exept for th...
Oil Index at CBOE, today, shows that in order to technical analysis oil has broken the lower band of Bollinger band. When the oil prices index is currently under the lower band, it should be considered oversold as same as W%R signed.

Back in early October I wrote in [Oct 1: Nowhere to Run, Nowhere to Hide] how there simply was no asset class (ex US Treasuries and US Dollar), no sector, no country to hide in. Everything stunk, and in fact it got worse in the ensuing weeks. September, October, November 2008 might be the worst 3 months ever (I don't have the date) but if not, it has to be in the top 3.
We used to run a weekly screen here to identify areas of relative strength - it's been useless for months on end. But for curiousity sake I ran it to see the best performers over the past quarter.
After the sell off on Monday the market has developed so far 2 consecutive up days that retrace partially the horrible plunge of more than 8%. The 8850 level is absolutely critical now for the continuation of the rebound toward 9500. I am positive although prices look trapped in a very wide trading range. The market is trying to develop a base and we should not see lower lows in the next weeks as prices should move to the higher side of the range in my opinion. XOM, T, MCD, HD, VZ continue to do well and should be followed.
In the Figure you can see a summary of the trend conditions of th...
