DetailsAfter the earthquake comes the aftershocks. The aftershocks of oil’s collapse are still spreading throughout the market. Drillers have filed for bankruptcy.

DetailsWhat if I told you Warren Buffett secretly hates the New England Patriots? Now, he’s not jealous of Tom Brady, his now four Super Bowl rings, or his supermodel wife.

Here’s his spot-on analysis of the oil market and, more specifically, the point where he’ll start loading up on the beaten-down sector too. A “Tremendous Opportunity” In…
DetailsThe arguments against natural gas are old. The bearish headlines, the bears took the most hated commodity down too much, too soon. Inventories are high. It’s unseasonably warm. It’ll never work out, I was told in an unseasonably warm December 2014. Then it happened. It got cold. And natural gas spiked 18% higher. And I…
