JLP & PPN are both great Platinum buys. We all know Platinum is in short suply and 2010 is the year we will see that shortage. So why is JLP & PPN listed as a sell confirmed by Britsih Bulls.? PPN only a 67% buy & JLP only a 24% buy on Barchart. ???? Is this short term opinion or is this what these sites think ie the way forward for the next 8 months. ???

India has been waking up its coal shortages lately. Last week there was a rush of activity both in the physical coal markets and in terms of equity deals. Along with many Indian companies, cement maker Gujarat Ambuja is seeking coal from South Africa and elsewhere this year. India’s largest power generator, NTPC, is said to be exploring opportunities for the acquisition of coal mines in South Africa, Indonesia, Mozambique and Australia, and has appointed Australian broker Macquarie to help. In Australia, Rio Tinto and Hancock Prospecting are among companies said to be thinking of selling to state-owned giant Coal India stakes in their thermal coal mines. Meanwhile, Coal India, which is the world’s largest coal miner, has said that its IPO will take place within a year.

Worldwide demand for natural gas has been growing at an average rate of nearly 3% a year, compared to oil's 1.7%. China's gas consumption is forecast to triple over the next 12 years, India's to double. Yet between them they have less than 2% of global reserves, so they will be forced to look to imports from the Mideast, Russia and Australia.

My dog produces enough natural Gas for me to consider listing on the LSE. Your eyes are closed mine are watering..... Any one want buy share in what my dog produces ???

Hi. The markets in general not looking great over past few days. I am hopeful as GAs is in demand. As winter nears energy demand will increase. The world economy will move into sustained recovery in time. I do not see the share falling much further. The Energy market will rise quickly. This is as good a time as any to invest. Think medium to long term with Gas. Oil exploration is shorter term depending on the level of risk you go for. LNG has a great future.

high energy prices have now made LNG viable on a large scale. And there are other advantages. European nations, for example, nervous about their increasing dependence on Russian gas, are looking to alternative sources such as North Africa, using LNG. China signed a $60 billion deal last month to buy 3 million tons of LNG a year from Qatar over 25 years from 2011. With its volumes growing 7% a year, LNG is the fastest-growing of the fossil-fuel industries. Because of the massive investments required, it is dominated by a handful of very large multinationals.

Global consumption is growing almost twice as fast as for oil, so natural gas is set to overtake oil in importance before the middle of the century. • It is the cleanest-burning of the fossil fuels, giving it a particular advantage at a time when curbing generation of greenhouse gases has become a major political issue. • And it's comparatively cheap, as it currently trades at about half the cost of crude oil on an energy-equivalent basis. http://www.moneyweek.com/investments/commodities/energy-natural-gas-and-how-to-play-it-93907.aspx?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Money%2BMorning In an energy-hungry world, it's therefore not surprising that there's now a mad scramble to procure long-term supplies and bring them to market.

Todays news: Rolls-Royce and French power company EDF Energy are collaborating on a project to help build four new nuclear power plants in the UK. The tie-up covers engineering and technical support during both the pre and post construction phases. Rossing Uranium Mine will surely be getting a lot of buyers as the Nuclear power industry picks up world wide. EDF would not consider spending millions on nuclear power if it was not sure it had access to the Uranium resources required.

GASOL is climbing as expected. Any news?

could this mean more business for Innovation Group? They currently have newly signed contract with RSA. Reports in today’s FT suggest RSA indicated at a recent investors conference that it was looking at acquisitions similar in scale to its £600m purchase of Nordic insurer Codan, and that it might fund any such purchases through a rights issue.

LNG is in demand and will rise in value. Because: -the recent dispute between Ukraine and Russia of unprecedented duration. An uncertain source of piped gas. -Higher oil prices pull up European long-term contract prices, which are generally linked to oil products via a six-month or more average. But because of the lag created by that contract structure, any significant jump in the oil price would at first push up Asian demand for LNG, and lead to higher European prices. - LNG cargo deliveries swing east during the summer, and then back west during the winters. - LNG prices are expected to begin to increase in 2010 as the economy improves. EIA predicted prices to average $6.63/Mcf in 2010. - In this emerging global LNG market structure, cargo diversions have become part of the accepted vocabulary. Last year, 14 million mt (653.8 Bcf) of Atlantic Basin LNG were expected to be delivered to Asia, twice as much as in 2007. - An earthquake in Japan in the summer of 2007 took 4 GW of nuclear capacity off the market. And leaky storage tanks in Korea forced more reliance on prompt purchases for immediate regasification. The demand this created for spot cargoes was felt as far away as Norway. Natural disasters and earth quakes are on the rise. These tragic events interupt the supply of other forms of energy (piped gas, petroleum, Nuclear, ....) LNG has been used over and over again to fill in the gaps when interruptions occur. It is easilly stored and recognised as NB energ

If the world divides into three major consuming centers, price signals in the three show demand is moving from Asia to Europe, while US prices show very little appetite for gas at all. The first indication of market change was the reported purchase of a cargo from Trinidad & Tobago last autumn at around $18/MMBtu, but by the time of its arrival in north Asia, prices were down to the low double-digits. In the first few weeks of January, Europe witnessed a dispute between Ukraine and Russia of unprecedented duration. With European prices easily topping $10/MMBtu, and Asian buyers looking to a sub-crude oil parity price of around $8/MMBtu, there was a steady stream of ships into the UK’s Isle of Grain, Belgium’s Zeebrugge terminal, and, in particular, the Spanish regasification terminals. An indication of the switch from Asia is the use of capacity at the Isle of Grain in the UK. It has seen a weekly cargo since the start of the year. Four tankers, from Algerian Sonatrach or UK major BP, had docked already by late January.

Coal price surges on Chinese demand By Javier Blas in London Published: August 23 2009 19:06 | Last updated: August 23 2009 19:06 Coal prices have jumped to their highest in a year as a drop in Chinese domestic output forces the country to import. The shift has particularly benefited the price of coking coal, used for steelmaking and much scarcer than thermal coal, which fires power plants. http://www.ft.com/cms/s/1c744c2c-9009-11de-bc59-00144feabdc0,Authorised=false.html?_i_location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ft.com%2Fcms%2Fs%2F0%2F1c744c2c-9009-11de-bc59-00144feabdc0.html&_i_referer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ft.com%2Fmarkets%2Fcommodities
