That is not good for people who 29 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: produce coal, but it does suggest there is a widespread 30 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: adoption of other fuel sources, particularly natural gas. Robert Campbell 31 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: is joining us. He's with oil production research from energy aspects, 32 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: and uh, Rob, this is an interesting development and it 33 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: basically confirms what we already in that coal is the 34 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: no longer what people want to buy, and that the 35 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 1: fracking revolution has made I guess natural gas so cheap 36 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 1: and oil so cheap that there are alternatives. Now, Uh, sure, 37 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: certainly there are alternatives, and it's it's a matter of 38 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 1: the fact that there's enough gas that it has the 39 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: price to to displace coal from the generation stack in 40 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: the US, and that's what we're seeing. And additionally, the 41 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: the regulatory pressure on the coal sector makes it unattractive 42 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:37,559 Speaker 1: to retrofit aging coal plants to comply with environmental regulations 43 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: going forward. I think, you know, there's a similar pattern 44 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: in China as well, obviously, one of the other major 45 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:47,959 Speaker 1: coal consumers, where the environmental concerns are making coal less 46 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: and less attractive, the government is actively looking to substitute 47 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: it out of the generation stack. And uh, you know 48 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: that's uh, that is what it is for the coal producers. 49 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 1: A couple of years ago, we would have said, um, 50 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,519 Speaker 1: maybe the outlook for oil was similar, you know, a 51 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: fuel in decline. Everybody was looking to renewables, and now 52 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: with prices where they are, it's all about hydrocarbons. Again, 53 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,919 Speaker 1: does does that continue? How How long is oil back? 54 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: In the conversation, I think a lot of people who 55 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: bought SUVs are in for a route awakening. Uh. If 56 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: you if we look at the supply and demand balances 57 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 1: going into twenty seventeen, that is we are going to 58 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: see a large draw down in inventories and our our 59 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: firm expects quite a considerable price increase to reflect the 60 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: the damage that's being done to non OPEC supply by 61 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: the low price environment. I mean this goes beyond the 62 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: shale areas and simply but we cannot the supply and 63 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: demand curves do not meet at this price. Well, quantify 64 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: what what? What does a large increase mean? We think 65 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: on average you'll be drawing a million parls a day 66 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: next year out of inventory, So we do have a 67 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: large overhang from the last couple of years. But ultimately, um, 68 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: that's not a sustainable way to go of op things. Uh. 69 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: Now you know you can get get well into the 70 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: future and start prognosticating. I mean, our firm's focus is 71 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: mainly on the shore you know, one to two year 72 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: horizon and simply put, you know, the current state of 73 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: demand in the current state of supply are not compatible. 74 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: How did I ask this question earlier the morning, and 75 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: I think it's still true here at cents Brant. The 76 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 1: elasticity or responsiveness is of the technology of American oil. 77 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: Are the Saudi's aware of that? Are they aware of 78 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: the new technology in America? It makes for different microeconomics 79 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: underlying the price. I think the Saudis are well aware 80 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 1: of this. UM. There's been a lot of misconceptions about 81 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: what the Saudis have been doing. UM. The Saudis are 82 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 1: not concerned about shale so much as they're concerned about 83 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: the lower cost producers such as Iraq and Iran taking 84 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: market share from the UH. In the end, they don't 85 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: mind a higher cost producers such as the US, and 86 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: they're willing to, you know, live in a lower price 87 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: environment to sustain oil as a as a as a 88 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 1: as a resource that that can be sold. And I 89 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 1: think that the latest statements from the Saudi officials pretty 90 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: much confirmed this. I would note on the shale side 91 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: of things that you know, everybody loves to talk about 92 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: how costs have come down, but this is entirely well, 93 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: not entirely, but a large amount of this will be 94 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: UH will be will be sixical factors because nobody's doing 95 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: any work. So I don't think the Schlumberg's of the 96 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: world are going to continue to operate at near lost 97 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 1: UH near in near lost conditions should activity recover. And 98 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: we've certainly heard this from our clients that they may 99 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: be happy to hedge their exposure at these prices, but 100 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 1: when it comes to they're quite concerned about what their 101 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: costs will be. What about the argument that you see 102 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 1: prices rise, the factors all come back. Oh yeah, I 103 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: mean that we we do anticipate them coming back. We 104 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: do anticipate the rising price to stimulate drilling. But I 105 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: think it's worth noting that the shale sector as a 106 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: whole has been cash flow negative for almost every quarter 107 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 1: since two thousand and eight, and the huge losses that 108 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: have been absorbed over the last you know, six months 109 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: or so, I think are really going to trigger a 110 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: bit of a change in the mindset from those who 111 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: are providing the dollars to to undertake this drilling. We'll 112 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: certainly see people supporting companies in growth mode and what 113 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 1: have you, but there will be a lot greater focus 114 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: on on achieving actual returns from from their investment. Mean, 115 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 1: go ahead if you if if you're an equity investor 116 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 1: in a shale company right now, the company has no 117 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: hope of ever paying an dividend and so you're only 118 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: exit is is M and A. But who's going to 119 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: take you over? If if the whole sector is bleeding cash? 120 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: Can you extrapolate where a gallon of gas is going 121 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: back to is it over three dollars? You know? I mean, 122 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: I mean our view on crude is that we get 123 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 1: back to around uh, you know, the seventies next year. 124 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: And on that basis, yeah, you could see three dollars 125 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: in parts of the United States. Uh. This is why 126 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,359 Speaker 1: I did remark about people who were buying all the SUVs. 127 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: Maybe in for surprise again, but I mean currently the 128 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: price is you know, twenty to thirty cents below where 129 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: it was a year ago, and that's obviously very supportive 130 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: for demand prices. Um. And you know, if I don't 131 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: own a car from when you fill it up, it's 132 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: amazing how cheap. Well we can go to someone who's 133 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: Robert Campbell will continue with this with energy aspects, this 134 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: chat on oil from thirty to fifty two thirty three 135 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 1: on Brent you bought at the bottom, John Tucker? Was 136 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: it the hummer you got? That used hummer? Was dollar? 137 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: How loo did he get in New Jersey? Uh? But 138 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: one fifty? Yeah, it's up to two oh six though 139 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: in my neighborhood. Okay, so it's still good. Yeah, is 140 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: Campbell just said Michael McKee one of the challenges we 141 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: have is you're the only one within like a zoop 142 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: dumb enough of a car checking with us. We look 143 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: at that when these bonds, currencies, commodities, it will save 144 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: us yet out to new strength one oh six eighty four. 145 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: That's a wow statistic. Let me get up the end 146 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: inter day chart. Going back, I'm gonna put this out 147 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: on Bloomberg at Radio Plus. I got a seven day 148 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: inter day on yen. The low is one oh six 149 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: thirty eight on June five at five pm exactly. We're 150 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: not there, but we're breaking down. We've got a couple 151 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: of levels to go through. You may get a retest 152 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 1: of that June six, June five, strength and end one 153 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: oh six thirty eight. Right now one oh six eighty four. Uh, 154 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 1: the markets are opened out up sixty and the vix 155 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: thirteen point eight five. We're right at eighteen thousand. We 156 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 1: can round it up to that, showing the resiliency of 157 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: the equities. You're Dennis Gartman earlier saying the challenges of 158 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: short term gaming the markets, given all that's going on, 159 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:05,319 Speaker 1: particularly negative interest rates and the other distortions that are 160 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: out there. I'm with Mike McKee. All it comes down 161 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: to the data dependent staggering to the next economic data. 162 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: This sour of surveillance has brought you by Westchester suber 163 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,319 Speaker 1: u is at Westchester Subaru dot com. Here's John Tucker 164 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: with news headlines you want some nor numbers. Former Secretary 165 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 1: of State Clinton, who was declared the Democratic presentive nominee 166 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: by the APO Monday, one four of six contests on Tuesday, 167 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 1: further extending her lead over Bernie Sanders. The vote tally 168 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 1: show in California, with nine percent of the vote counted, 169 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: Clinton had four hundred thousand votes more than Sanders, about 170 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: fifty six percent of the total.

Robert, 226 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: you're from Canada, right, that's correct. They have had an 227 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: adjustment from hundred dollars a barrel. Is Big Oil adjusting 228 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: to the new landscape? Or is it business as usual? Uh? No, 229 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,200 Speaker 1: very much not. I mean, these these companies are really 230 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: hacking away at things. They've they've cut the fat. Now 231 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: they've cut their cutting into the muscle on the bone 232 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: in a lot of places. You know, they're I think 233 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: the the extraordinary lengths that some of these firms have 234 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: gone through to sustain their dividends. Uh, you know, speaks 235 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: volumes about what they're going to be able to do 236 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 1: going forward, uh, in terms of investing in new capacity. 237 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: And I think that you know, the financial discipline that's 238 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 1: been demanded of them by the markets will will will 239 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 1: inhibit the investment cycle at the beginning. When do we 240 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: see an investment cycle? Yeah, I think the companies will 241 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: want to see a sustained price increase. I mean, if 242 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: you're in, if you're you know, if you're if you're 243 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: looking to invest, you don't really care about a week 244 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 1: of higher prices or what have you. Anybody was a 245 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: slightly long memory will recall that Q two last year, 246 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 1: we had run up to the sixties that quickly melted 247 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 1: down and you know, we ended up in the thirties 248 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: or uh, you know, eight months later. So I think 249 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: there'll be definitely some caution here. But I mean, our 250 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: sense is that the mood is turning and that people 251 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: within these firms do see a large deficit in the 252 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: market that coming next year. Uh. And obviously that is 253 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: supportive for cash flows and future investment. But there's been 254 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: very little exploration done in recent years because of the cutbacks, 255 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: you know, and these are the you know, if you're 256 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: an ex on or a shell. You know, if a 257 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: few small ten thousand browl that they feel aren't going 258 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: to really make moves the need for you, you've nailed it, is, 259 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: You've absolutely nailed it. Is the needle going to get 260 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 1: moved again in the next five years? Is a spirit 261 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: going to be there for upstream to go out and 262 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: find the next puddle of oil? Uh? You know, I 263 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: think if you look back in the history of people 264 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: making prognostications about the oil market, everybody who looks five 265 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: years ahead tends to get it wrong. But I mean 266 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 1: that you know, you will, you know, we we have 267 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: to move into a price environment that's more supportive of investment. 268 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: UH and and ultimately UH the OPACT nations will gain 269 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 1: market share. But the the there is a space for 270 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: non OPAC supply to be in there. But if you 271 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: need to think a hundred million dollars or more in 272 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: the deep water wells, you need to have a pretty 273 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 1: decent understanding of your return environment, and at this time 274 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: they don't really have it. Um. The shift in Saudi 275 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: policy is pretty decisive here. I mean the fact that 276 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 1: they've said that they're not going to uh basically underwrite 277 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: a put in this market anymore. Uh, makes it much 278 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: more questionable. But when you're going to get your return 279 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: on these megaprojects, and uh, ultimately that means the costs 280 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: need to need to come down, That means the and 281 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: that means a slower lead time on development. I think 282 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 1: the Saudis themselves are cognizant of this, and this is 283 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: part of the reason why you see them making noises 284 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: at the recent OPEC meeting that they're not looking to 285 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: flood the market, that they're not looking to drive the 286 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: price down. They do understand that they need to be 287 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: a return to investment. I mean, we've cut a staggering 288 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 1: amount of capital out of this industry. And this was 289 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: an industry that wasn't really happy with its returns on 290 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: capital in at a hundred dollars. So there's a lot 291 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: of restructuring to come. When you talk about not much 292 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: exploration done, is there still a lot of undrilled fields 293 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: out there, especially deep water that would be the first 294 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 1: thing people go back to. You know, I think deep 295 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: water is uh, you know, is pretty far out on 296 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: the cost curve. Um initially will probably see the recovery 297 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: in the areas like the shale areas. I mean one 298 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 1: of the attractions of shale is that, you know, it's 299 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: kind of like a manufacturing process. Who know the resource 300 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 1: and know the area, and you can add supply relatively quickly. 301 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: You can scale up and scale down your investments relatively quickly. 302 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 1: And that's the kind of picture place we're moving towards. 303 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: Stuff like oil fans and deep water requires a lot 304 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 1: more conviction on the scale of the resource and what 305 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 1: have you. Um. But you know, again, everybody who said 306 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 1: there was we were running out of oil, remember peak oil? Um? 307 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: You know there, you know, the shale, the shale revolution 308 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: completely blindside them. And so I think it would be 309 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: fool hardy to UH to just assume there's nothing left 310 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: after this. Do you have the same enthusiasm for net gas? 311 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:41,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I believe it hasn't bounced like oil, am. 312 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: I mean that gas is in a is in a 313 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 1: tricky freaky position globally. Really, there's there's oversupply in our 314 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:50,120 Speaker 1: nat gas team UH sees pretty weak pricing on LG 315 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: for the next few years going forward, and that is 316 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: really going to be a drag ultimately in the US 317 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: with the coal plant retirements UH and and and the liquids. 318 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: You know, becoming more attractive. Um, you know you are 319 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 1: going to see some upside on US prices, but again 320 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 1: you know they're not. There's not really if you if 321 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: you have the price to get coal out of the 322 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: generation stack, you've got to be pretty cheap. Thank you. 323 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 1: This has been a great brief Robert Campbell with energy 324 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: aspects really helping with wisdom. Uh. This morning, Mike, I'm 325 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: checking here. The tenure yield did not get to a 326 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 1: one sixty nine handle. It got to one point seven 327 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: zero zero five. Yields are a little bit higher across 328 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 1: the board here in the last two hours. But you 329 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 1: look at where we were, Mike going, we walked in 330 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 1: the door. You offer the surveillance Sikorski. Uh, this morning, Um, 331 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 1: German yields are a little bit higher off of where 332 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: they were at five and six am. But it's remarkable 333 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 1: to look at the screen. I mean, it's just the 334 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: compression of yields. And I honestly, Mike, don't think we 335 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 1: got a straight answer today as to why well it 336 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: does does seemed to be as Ira Jersey was saying, 337 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 1: it's the money flowing into the perceived safe markets with 338 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: a little bit um they're in the US case with 339 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: a little bit higher yield. Germany doesn't have any yield. 340 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: A couple of things to talk about. I want to 341 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: congratulate you, Mike unseen la note of the North Carolina vote, 342 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,679 Speaker 1: which I thought was really interested. We've been watching that 343 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 1: one for a while. UM. There were a couple of 344 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: other races in North Carolina that were interesting in terms 345 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 1: of how how Republicans would do what wing of the 346 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: party I would do well. And then California. UM, the 347 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: state changed its method of electing UH senators and in 348 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 1: the primary it's the top two regardless of party, who 349 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: will face off in the general election. They're both Democrats. 350 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: Another thing worth watching our European banks. I'm not expert 351 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: enough to know the story, but Mike, I would note 352 00:19:54,880 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: that UNI credit has rolled over in his testing UH 353 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 1: a one shot low of five or six days ago. 354 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 1: It was a quick blip down and blip back, but 355 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: it has been saggy, to say the least. That's another 356 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: thing that I would watch. What else are you watching? 357 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,880 Speaker 1: I like your Joels analysis. That was great. Well, we'll 358 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 1: watch that today and see if the quits rate continues 359 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 1: to show that people are willing to take a risk. 360 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,199 Speaker 1: I'm sorry it's not ton A m this morning. And 361 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: then we'll continue to see the It will be be 362 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 1: interesting to see when we get to next week to 363 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: house to housing. Rachel just don't go up, so mortgage 364 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: rates continue to keep people interested in buying, we hope. Well, 365 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 1: it's been the compression that we have seen the last 366 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: few days, folks. You see it in the yields coming 367 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: in and certainly some of the GDP data. Another thing, 368 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,199 Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's removed. But another thing would be 369 00:20:55,240 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 1: South Africa which reported very difficult uh G d P numbers. 370 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 1: Our team Arabill, Gomette and Ambatha reporting out of South 371 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: Africa on the contraction down one that was way away 372 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 1: from the survey. I mean, uh, certainly that was a 373 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: disappointed number. Fitch had to come out. They affirm the 374 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 1: nation's credit rating a triple B minus. Some of the 375 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 1: little things we're looking at, it was that sort of day, 376 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: a little nuances, little things oil. It's not a little thing, 377 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: as you heard from Robert Campbell fifty two forty four 378 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: and Brent up a dollar West Texas fifty one four 379 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 1: eighty eight cents gold puts on this Mike I just 380 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: noticed cold put on nineteen dollars twelve six. Maybe it's 381 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 1: the Dennis Gartman. Can we blame there? It is some 382 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 1: of the little things we're looking at. Of course, the 383 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 1: big elephant in the room is a Fete meeting June fifteenth. 384 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: Mike and I are really looking forward to that coverage. 385 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: And then we go on to Brexit June, and then 386 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 1: we come back Hill, Janney Yellen and Humphrey Hawkins.
