Is Oil expensive at $80?

Is Natural gas expensive at $3?

If it’s expensive would the economics of replacement occur and will we find other means of doing the same thing?

Like with Nuclear? With Coal? With Solar?

As we see nations reveal their hands over time in the Middle East, ask yourself what is so fundamental and at such a discounted price that you don’t need to worry about the present while you enjoy the fruits of the future.

Did you know that a new refinery, the first in decades will be built in Texas as Exxon also moves down to the big T?

Wouldn’t this require a lot of Steel?

Don’t you think high energy prices would lead to higher steel prices?

A lot to unpack these days, but asking questions can help you find the value you need to succeed.

Not FOMO, or Fear of Missing Out

Because you did

Oil was $50 a barrel and it is not anymore, the question is what is the next opportunity

because the past is the past

But the future has not been written

So write yourself a million dollar check as Jim Carrey did and eventually was able to cash that check

If you need help adjust for the future read below or talk to me on chat
