Natural Gas Parabolic: The Greatest Raping of America is Upon You

Be them.

Force harsh restrictions on vendors of heating oil. Brainwash Americans into believing natural gas is safe, in spite of it blowing up people’s homes and the exploration for it is toxic AF.

People love natural gas because coal is evil. Shit it dirt cheap and America is the Saudi Arabia of natural gas.

Big oil panics and shits their pantaloons.

Prices spike after Hurricane Katrina. Natural gas providers like CHK are the new shit. Exxon sucks.

Price collapses, natty gets clown punched lower for the next decade. CEO and founder of CHK crashes himself into a fucking brick wall and dies. NOT A SUICIDE!

Meanwhile, Exxon sops up natural gas properties like a motherfucker. They buy XTO for $41 billion.

Over in Europe, gas prices are expensive as shit and they get most of their supply from evil Russia.

Formulate a god damned plan.

Over in the US, people are formulating, figuring out ways to liquify our over-abundance of gas, in order to export it overseas. The very thing that keeps our prices low will be eliminated by this one invention.

We did it.

Cheniere makes first LNG shipment in 2016.

Build more homes. Put those fucking natural gas pipes in. Heating oil the fuck out.

Over in Europe, more hand wringing. Russia is so evil, we shouldn’t buy gas from them anymore. Problem is, we’ll all freeze to death.

Formulate a plan. We can get that fucking natural gas from Qatar — problem is Syria is in the god damned way.

Ah ha! DESTROY IT, take it over, and then build pipeline.

Plan fails. Gosh darn it.

LNG shipments from US really picking up steam. Every speculator in energy markets are short natural gas. Kill them via squeeze. Remove supply via LNG and bury them.

Ongoing.

    the only thing that puzzles me about next presidency ( which tells how market design in the next 1 year or 2 ) is Peter Thiel pubblic support for another Trump presidency .. It is like he knows there is chances it happens ; he’s the one who owns forecasts and significant datas about “some”matters

    >Thiel predicts Trump will win re-election in 2020 if the economy is good.

    Hard to bet against this guy on forecasts.

      Yeah, no shit it’s a big fund trying to get out of a losing trade. We hear this all the time. But for some reason no one ever takes a guess at WHO the big fund is. Figure that one out and that’s where the real money will be made.
