Natural Gas Powers Higher as Gazprom Turns the Screw
Christian DeHaemer, Crisis Trader - 5/16/2008
Earlier this week, Andrew Mickey explained how the time has finally come round for the liquefied natural gas (LNG) market.
Today, Chris DeHaemer of Crisis Trader further explains why the world is worried. There's just not enough of the clean-burning stuff to go around... and the big players who dominate the market, like Gazprom, are far too strong for the West's liking. That reality can translate into strong profits for investors who know where to drill.
Warm Regards,

Spring is traditionally the time of year when baseball gets into full swing, you start cussing at the lawn mower, and natural gas prices drop as heating demand eases and air conditioner demand is a month away.
But not this year. After two years of mild winters and low heating demand, natural gas has spiked during the traditional soft period. In fact, it's more than doubled to an intraday high of $11.79.
Demand for Clean Energy
It's ironic that the religion of global warming has taken root along side an emerging energy crisis. One feeds the other in a hippy spasm of Exxon greed and brown clouds over Mumbai.
The demand for clean energy means that most new power plants are fueled by natural gas instead of coal. And as Andrew Mickey so gracefully pointed out in this space a few days ago, natural gas is slowly becoming a fungible global market. That means that more gas is going to Europe and Japan, due to higher prices over there.
The end result is that North American inventories have been depleted, and prices are going up.
