World's Most Expensive Natural Gas
Natural Gas Intelligence reported Thursday that natural gas spot price traded as high as $175/MMBtu in New York City where NYMEX futures have been averaging below $3/MMBtu.
Freeze offs helped limit gas supplies while demand spiked. Genscape reported production freeze-offs in Texas impacting about 1.2 Bcf/d of Permian Basin production month-to-date versus the previous two-week average. Alberta also reported gas well freeze-offs driving AECO, Alberta's natural gas price benchmark to soar 72% Between Christmas and New Year.
This price disparity underscores the inadequate energy infrastructure at the U.S. Northeast region. The current gas transporting capacity is not enough to haul gas from gas producing basins to meet the sudden spike of heating demand in the region. Bloomberg reported that gas in Northeast region is the world's priciest
Unlike crude oil which is traded on global markets, natural gas is still quite regional with demand mainly driven by weather.

Such a waste of Time and Money while the world moves on -
So here's where we are going - Special counsel to investigate the OTHER side - THEN a Special Counsel to investigate BOTH Special Counsels
This is what happens when there are no political adults in the ROOM -- it pains me to say Bill Clinton (the only politician in the last 20 years) should meet with President Trump and the Top DOGS in the Senate and House and do the DEAL -
1. Congress abolishes Special Counsel silliness - NEVER AGAIN
2. Both investigations are finished - Congress shall not pursue any further hearings into anything covered by the DEAL
3. Sessions and his assistant AG resign or fired
4. None of the above are to be complicated by budget, deficit, immigration, et al - KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID
IF there is no DEAL 2020 will look like 1968 - we don't need this s**t - GROW UP

stuff you can't make up...Biased, no not the WSJ:
"We are looking for someone who can lead wide-ranging reportage -- delving deeply into the economic underpinnings of Russian power and Mr. Putin�s own grip on domestic politics, getting inside Russia�s hacking complex and chronicling Moscow�s activities in the Mideast and elsewhere.
A central goal will be explicating Russia�s strategic aims and exploring the country�s fraught relations with the Trump administration amid American officials� assertions that Moscow used a campaign of hacking and disinformation to try to sway last year�s presidential elections."
"Strong Russian language skills are a distinct advantage."

On January 15, the DOJ's internal watchdog - the Office of the Inspector General (OIG), is expected to present their findings to Congressional investigators regarding a wide variety of alleged bias and malfeasance by the FBI, the Clinton campaign, and the Obama Administration - both during and after the 2016 election.
Moreover, the man heading up the OIG investigation, Michael Horowitz, fought the Obama Administration to regain investigative powers which were restricted by former Attorney General Eric Holder during the Fast and Furious scandal.

Why Higher Fed Rates Havent Helped the Dollar
A lot of moving parts - there was a time when the relative rates of inflation vs the US determined currency values over a medium term (3-5 yrs) and then the relative REAL yield played a part // the curent confusion over the lack of inflation and the cereal box mix of PCE, CPI, GDP deflator with Core and non Core flavors has not helped drive expectations
QE certainly has played a part - as ECB started up its program EURzone players turned to higher yielding Treasury mkt (see my chart of EU purchases from a few days ago) for a couple of years - my pet theory about Bernanke Hoarding Cash played a big part in restricting growth and reduced inflation expectations
The decline of petro-dollars, the shifting trade flows and the long term effects of post industrial service based economies in the Developed Countries has also confused the traditional currency market movers
Japan is "QE forever", EU is QE plus intra EURzone currency risk (see Italy vs Germany) w/o a Benchmark yield, UK post Brexit Gilts are likely to play a more dominant role than simple trade flows and the US is unleashing the hoarded dollars into a fiscal loosening period (exacerbated if infrastructure build becomes the next big thing)
Yield is simple and despite detours I think it will return as a currency driver -- BUT be careful out there the Central Banks have summoned Demons that are yet to be seen

USD Not Responding Positively to Higher Fed Funds Target��The prospect of a tighter Fed policy during the second half of 2017 and into the new year has not been providing the USD with the support that we might have expected.

cheap gossip, book of stereotyping...
the best realistic facts discovery from that book, is that the EVIL Dutch secret services responsible for the overwhelming majority of information delivered to USA/CIA/FBI about Trump circles and their "Russia connection". in other words, BILDERBERG masters of evil and tyranny and in full control.
