Epic Stock Picks
Crude Oil Outlook – Prices Headed Up Regardless of Pipeline Woes
This week, oil prices surged on news the Alaska pipeline was shutdown after workers discovered a leak. The Trans Alaska Pipeline has been shut down since last Saturday and while this has resulted in short term supply disruptions to refineries along the West Coast, the pipeline is expected to go back into operation in the next few days. The real question is would oil prices have surged anyway, even without this news? My vote is “yes.” The reason has to do with one key to oil price moves I am going to share with you here. The key is a publicly available number. This number is released every Wednesday morning – it's called the EIA Energy Stocks Report. EIA stands for the Energy Information Administration, a U.S. agency funded by Congress with the mission of disseminating independent energy information. The weekly stocks report is sort of like a Census for energy products; gasoline, heating oil and crude oil. I've found one big key to oil price data is unlocked by charting the trend of the data. The most recent EIA Energy Stocks Report tells us 333 million barrels of oil are currently in stock. The 5 year average for this stocks number is 314 million, so the current number is a big number, right? Greater supply should equal lower prices, correct? However prices over the past 5 weeks have risen from about $85/barrel to over $91/barrel. Now let's analyze my key, this being the trend of stocks over the past 5 weeks. The first week of December stocks were 355 million and on the report that week went DOWN 4 million. The second week they were DOWN 10 million, the 3rd DOWN 5 million, the 4th & 5th down 1 and 4 respectively. This first full week of January (the latest data that came out this week) the stocks were also DOWN 2 million, the 6th down week in a row; therefore overall the trend of stocks is DOWN from 355 million barrels the first week of December to 333 currently. The supply trend is down, the price trend is up; one of my major keys to predicting oil prices. As long as the supply trend is headed south I project a bullish trend to oil prices.

Exclusive Interview with Ken Fisher Part 8 - Best Industries and Countries

Ken Fisher is a money manager, and on the list of the Forbes 400 Richest Americans. He is also a Forbes columnist, where he recently recommended several income stocks, such as GOL Intelligent Airlines (GOL), FLSmidth (FLIDY), and Hasbro (HAS). His latest book, Debunkery: Learn It, Do It, and Profit from It-Seeing Through Wall Street’s Money-Killing Myths was just published. He is also author of several other books, including The Ten Roads to Riches: The Ways the Wealthy Got There (And How You Can Too!) and How to Smell a Rat: The Five Signs of Financial Fraud Ken Fisher Interview Part 8 Please note: The original interview took place on Wednesday, October 27, 2010 Stockerblog: What sectors and industries look good to you? Fisher: I’m still in the exact same place I’ve been in for quite a while. We’re in a period of where, domestically and globally, the economy will do better than people think it will do, when they don’t think it will do well, and therefore in an environment like that, the stock area that will do well are materials, industrials, the more capital intensive parts of technology, consumer durables but not consumer staples, and to a lesser extent, energy. The parts that do worse tend to be consumer staples, health care, utilities, finance, all the things that aren’t economically sensitive. Another way of saying it is that things that are rising right now are things that are economically sensitive. Because most people think that the economy is not doing so well. For example, something that’s perfectly observable that nobody wants to write is that nominal GDP in America is already at an all time high. It’s a simple fact, but nobody wants to write that, and if you write it, nobody will believe it. Because the mythology around us in the media is that we’re mired in a slump. ‘It’s a dismal world.’ That’s real GDP that’s at an all-time high, inflation adjusted GDP isn’t quite to its all time highs yet but it will happen in the first quarter. It’s not that far away. It’s been expanding for 14 months now. When the NBER came out and said ‘we’re officially saying the recession is over and it ended in the third quarter of last year’, the media reacted to that with catcalls. The fact is, the economy on a global basis, with some places better than average and some places worse than average which is normal, the economy’s been expanding globally earlier than that. Stockerblog: What countries do you think look good right now? Fisher: Overall, the next step is you want to be overweighted in emerging markets, you want to be lightly overweight to America, and you want to be lightly underweight to the English-speaking world and most of Europe. We continue to have a world where people are skeptical of emerging markets, but emerging markets continue to do better than people think they will, with a couple of exceptions, and one of them is China. China continues to do well economically but there is so much interest in China relative to the rest of the emerging markets that the Chinese markets don’t do well, because there is too much optimism and expectation about them and excitement. Latin America, Brazil, Chile, obviously not Venezuela, the broad spectrum of Hispanic America, the broad spectrum of the rest of Asia, India, and Eastern Europe. America is slightly over-weighted because America is doing better than people think it is. End of Part 8 The Debunkery book is available at Amazon .
