I would be concerned at Turkey's entrance into the EU as opening the floodgates for terrorists to continental Europe.. however, geographically, Turkey's border regions with Syria, Iraq, and Iran are ethnically homogenous with the population consisting almost entirely of Kurds, and Kurds tend not...

How do the French heat and cook though? By the way, your english is excellent!

Russia continues to nationalize its gas assets, this time russneft.. I wish the continental europeans good luck... you will need it...though GB and Norway will join you soon in some level of dependency on Russia as North Sea output decreases... My guess is that pipeline access is one major...

you wouldn't know about it if they did...

My faith is restored as well..

Uhhh lets see enormous short OI and John Arnold's fixed float swaps for August ended up way way in the +$ column... good time for him to drive prices the other way and precipitate a short covering rally on all the people who rolled over.. wait he already has started that..... Fundamentals...

International Energy Agency crude oil data... i.e. IEA data... you mentioned world supply situation...

Yes, $5 handle, sell your futures please.. now..

i'll buy the UNG options argument.. at least for near months. that's one fat ass gap down, glad i was flat for the weekend.

Why would you promote trading in a futures-tracking ETF in a futures forum, especially UNG? They're only useful as hedges for an equity only portfolio if you'd rather not trade sector ETFs. 100 shares x $49 = $4900 that's almost the amount needed to trade a full size contract; you can trade a...
