The Road To New England -- Running Out Of Natural Gas -- December 26, 2022

It's tedious to post this, but it's for the archives.

I don't recall seeing this before this year: natural gas dropping to third place in ISONE.

Update: COP's Giant Willow Oil Field, North Slope, Alaska -- December 26, 2022

Before we get started: who needs this oil? Which US state most needs this oil? That may be the thumb on the "decision" scale.  

And, before we get started, globally, is it coming down to this for three US giants?

  • XOM: Guyana
  • CVX: Venezuela
  • COP: Alaska

Alaska oil future is tracked here.

COP's Alaskan projects: link here.

On the radar scope: COP's giant Willow oil field.

  • 600 million bbls over ten years
  • only three or four summer months each year to build
  • timeline:
    • Biden administration promises to have:
      • final environmental report released by the end of February, 2023;
      • final decision by end of March, 2023:
  • three options:
    • deny entire project;
    • grant approval for two pads;
    • approve entire project.

COP: says it won't settle for anything less than full approval; a two-pad approval is not economic according to COP

My hunch:

  • Biden will thread the needle and gain max political leverage by approving two pads;
  • if COP won't accept, then COP gets the blame; Biden can say he approved the project;

Comments that will affect the outcome:

  • Comment: after killing the Keystone XL, if Biden is seen as killing yet another project ...
  • Comment: Biden's official energy program -- "no more drilling"
  • Comment: the project has bipartisan support in Alaska
  • Comment: could delay decision long enough to make construction "moot" this year; if so, there's no reason why Biden couldn't delay decision until well late into 2023 or 2024
    • a delay of the decision would allow Biden and COP to continue negotiating;

For investors: if approved, it's going to be a huge drag on earnings short term.

The "Jason Bourne" franchise.

I think there's only one of the five I haven't watched more than once.

I was surprised to find myself enjoying The Bourne Legacy as much I as I did considering this is one of the five in which Matt Damon did not appear. It may be my favorite of the five. The cinematography is spectacular and the story line pulls the Jason Bourne story together.

The Sound of 007: Live From The Royal Albert Hall

Most enjoyable, Paloma Faith.

Cinematography outstanding. 

A keeper. 

Also on Amazon Prime Video:

From wiki:

Paloma Faith Blomfield was born in the Hackney area of London on 21 July 1981,  the daughter of an English mother and Spanish father. Both of her parents were raised in Norfolk.
Her parents separated when she was two years old and divorced two years later. She was raised by her mother in Stoke Newington, although she maintains a close relationship with her paternal grandmother.
As a child, she took ballet classes in Dalston. After completing her A-levels at City and Islington College, she went on to study for a degree in contemporary dance at the Northern School of Contemporary Dance in Leeds, while working as a hip-hop dancer at the nightclub LoveDough.
She then studied for an MA in theatre directing at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design and took various part-time jobs as a sales assistant at Agent Provocateur, a singer in a burlesque cabaret, a bartender, a life model, and a magician's assistant.
Faith's first foray into music began when she mimicked famous soul and jazz singers including Etta James and Billie Holiday, whom she admires and cites as influences for her own work.
She met her managers Jamie Binns and Christian WÃ¥hlberg of Lateral Management in 2007.
Binns had been tipped off by the producer Peanut, a client who had recently worked with Faith in his studio and been impressed.
He met up with Faith shortly afterwards and was "completely blown away", later saying, "I wasn't sure what this girl was going to do – she was an actress and a singer – but there was just something about her in that artistic realness that when I came out of the meeting I called Christian and said, 'We have to do something with this girl!'"
During her time at college, Faith worked in a pub where the manager asked her to front his band, which they later called Paloma and the Penetrators.
During a performance with the band at a cabaret show, she was scouted by an A&R man from Epic Records, who invited her to sing for the manager of the label.
Twenty minutes into the audition, she asked the manager to turn his phone off; when he refused, she walked out.
The manager later called her and offered her a contract, claiming that he had seen many acts since their meeting but none had been as memorable as her.
She turned down an opportunity to join Amy Winehouse's band in order to write and perform her own songs.
Her first recognised work was the song "It's Christmas (and I Hate You)," which she recorded as a duet with Josh Weller in 2008.

Predictions For 2023 -- IN PROGRESS

Others: link here.

Mine, in progress, not ranked in any particular order:

  • Energy remains the top global news story; coal talk overwhelms "global warming" talk 
    • New England needs to re-think their energy policy; they won't
  • EV manufacturers will experience a "come-to-Jesus" moment; challenges for Tesla may be insurmountable;
    • there will be a relative glut of new cars by mid-summer as supply chain obstacles are resolved, and floodgate of 2023 cars released as well as beginning surge of EV
    • EVs will disappoint; consumers can't afford; recession-like economy for 1H23
  • WTI trends toward $90, but won't go over $100;
  • no major military action in the Pacific; in eastern Europe; in the Mideast; or on the Korean peninsula; another year of peace; Ukraine war will end in unstable truce
  • Covid-19 fades away; except in China
  • the Bakken "maintains"; 
    • active rigs trend toward 50; production returns to 1.2 million bopd;
  • Fed will remain hawkish
  • NFL has best year in history; NBA not so much
    • Dallas Cowboys will past first round but won't make it to the Super Bowl
  • the milliondollarway blog will be better than ever

The one "issue" that completely confounds me: how much crude oil the US will have in storage measured in "number of days" through 2023.

  • if week-after-week, number of days of crude oil supply stays above 30 days, the "availability of oil" is a non-issue.;
  • if "we" stay between 22 days and 28 days, moving around an average of 26 days, plus or minus a couple of days, it's pretty much the same thing -- a yawner;
  • but if we get to 24 days and the trend is definitely downward, one would expect crude oil prices (and gasoline prices) to start going higher; 
  • for me the "breaking point" is 20 days AND a consistent downward trend, week-after-week
  • a second aspect of all this correlates with this maxim: the price of oil is not determined by the average price of all oil available, but the price of the last bbl being sold, if that makes sense -- the corollary? Once we hit go below a certain number of days of crude oil in storage, the price of oil won't move linearly with the drop in the number of days of oil storage. The price of oil will surge, not week/week, but day/day. Imagine walking toward the edge of a cliff .... that last step is not like the penultimate step before going over the edge ...  
  • days of supply is incredibly complicated:
    • first of all, it's a prediction
    • second, large number of variables, each of which by itself, can be incredibly difficult to predict
    • completely unpredictable geopolitical events can have huge effects
    • policy decisions by oil-producing countries can have huge effects, and some policy decisions can result in unintended consequences (e.g., Biden's decision to release oil from the SPR)
    • all one can do is pull out a yellow legal-size piece of paper, draw a line down the middle and put supply issues on one side and demand issues on the other other side (the most recent, perhaps best example -- the announcement by Mexico that as of 2023, that country will no longer export any of its oil

Holiday Retail Sales Numbers Starting To Come In -- December 26, 2022

From Market Street:

Am I missing something?

This is not a "good news" headline.

First, this is simply in line with inflation numbers. 

But worse, retailers had to deeply discount their products this year.

So, retail sales in line with last year (at best) and margins are going to be a lot, lot lower.
