Natural Gas Prices Signaling Oil Bottom for Investors

Commodities / Natural Gas Jan 08, 2016 - 03:41 PM GMT

By: EconMatters

Commodities

Everyone is trying to figure when the oil markets will bottom. Well lost in all the crazy action in markets globally is the nice resurgence off the bottom for natural gas prices. Natural Gas prices have essentially gone from $1.68 per MMBtu to $2.40 per MMBtu rather rapidly in the midst of a mild winter so far. The reason is that all those rig reductions are starting to affect the production of the commodity, less natural gas is coming to market relative to expectations.

The Lag Effect


The lag effect in all those rig declines is starting to show up in the natural gas production numbers, and although the cut in oil rigs hasn`t shown up yet in oil production in a meaningful way, it is just around the corner over the next three months by my calculation. We should start to experience some meaningful U.S. Oil Production cuts by late March and early April which will solidify the fact that the oil market had long sense bottomed in January of this year.

Market Investment


By the time everyone realizes that the oil market has bottomed it is too late to make the real good, easy money off the bottom, just like in natural gas prices. You have to be willing to step in and take the risk that prices haven`t bottomed. You basically are getting paid to buy when everyone else is selling the market, in essence, blood in the streets is the market analogy. We accurately called the bottom in natural gas prices, we will see how close we are in the oil markets. But we know that any investment right now in the oil market where one can stay in the trade, and not be liquidated for any reason, i.e., bankruptcy risk in insolvent company – is going to make money over a two year time frame. Moreover, the reward will far and above exceed the risk involved, and the performance of said trade will greatly outperform the overall market returns of most other asset alternatives.

The theory of quantum mechanics and Einstein’s theory of relativity (E=mc2) have taught us that matter (yin) and energy (yang) are inter-related and interdependent. This interconnectness of all things is the essense of the concept “yin-yang”, and Einstein’s fundamental equation: matter equals energy. The same theories may be applied to equities and commodity markets.

All things within the markets and macro-economy undergo constant change and transformation, and everything is interconnected. That’s why here at Economic Forecasts & Opinions, we focus on identifying the fundamental theories of cause and effect in the markets to help you achieve a great continuum of portfolio yin-yang equilibrium.

That's why, with a team of analysts, we at EconMatters focus on identifying the fundamental theories of cause and effect in the financial markets that matters to your portfolio.
