About That Energy Revolution -- October 23, 2021

 In land area, Indonesia is smaller than Denmark. Hold that thought. 

Countries strongly dependent upon coal, ZeroHedge:

Oil: meanwhile the stories keep coming in -- shortage of crude oil; end-of-year crude oil could see $90-Brent; $87-WTI. With WTI at $84 yesterday, I don't see a lot of difference between yesterday's price and end-of-year price as forecast by Goldman's Jeff Curie. Remember: whether or not guys like Jeff Curie are right or wrong, folks make decisions based on their estimates.

Americans on the Move

Moving company, Mayflower, data:

• top inbound metro: Sarasota, FL (New Yorkers leaving high cost/high tax NYC)
• top inbound states with number one listed first:
• Idaho
• South Carolina
• Oregon
• Tennessee
• Florida

• Top inbound metro areas:
• Sarasota, FL
• Wilmington, NC
• Fort Myers-Cape Coral, FL
• Sante Fe, NM
• Boise, ID
  

• Top reasons certain destinations selected once decision to move was made:
• two-thirds indicated water as a top influence:
• almost as many cited proximity to parks, green spaces, and nature trails
• over half indicated dining out options influenced their move

• Most interesting: the definition of "home town" is changing
• when I was growing up, "home town" meant where I was originally from;
• now, more and more, "home town" means where one currently lives

• Unable to verify, but it appears Mayflower did not poll the 75,000 Haitians currently on their way to America.
