The Roller Coaster Ride Continues

Jobless claims fall more than expected: fell 16,000 to 278,000; forecast: 281,000. Actually pretty close this time. Last week's number -- a huge "swing and a miss" up revised upward by another 1,000 which means last week's claims increased by a whopping 21,000. The four-week average last week was also revised upward but very, very slightly, from 285,000 to 285,250.

The four-week average: decreased to 283,000 from 285,250 the previous week.

RBN Energy: Can American’s Shale Success Be Duplicated?
Over the past six years surging U.S. hydrocarbon production from shale has exceeded domestic demand in many cases – leading to the development of export infrastructure. Large volumes of natural gas liquids (NGLs) such as propane are already being exported. Natural gas exports in the form of liquefied natural gas (LNG) are about to start and the recent end to federal restrictions offers the possibility to increase crude exports if they become competitive. A critical assumption behind all these export opportunities is that the U.S. continues to be the only country (except Canada to a lesser degree) to successfully “crack the code” in shale exploitation to produce commercially significant volumes competitively. This assumption would be turned on its head if competing countries like Mexico, China, Poland, Argentina and the U.K. are able to unlock their own shale potential.
Today we review RBN Energy’s first Drill Down report of 2016, which considers the many “below-ground” and “above-ground” factors that will determine whether and how quickly, shale development becomes a worldwide phenomenon.
Please be warned: The genesis for this blog and the associated Drill Down report is Chapter 18 of “The Domino Effect”, the newly published book by Rusty Braziel, and as such is intended to be a subliminal promotion for the book.   The report expands upon the question posed in the title of Chapter 18: “Does the U.S. Have a Monopoly on Shale?”
The book, The Domino Effect is also linked at the sidebar at the right.
