Commodities Class: Coal

Aaah yes...finally !

The scourge of liberal dreamers and global warming snake oil salesmen.
The delight of evil American business men, with their shiny watches and gas guzzling street tanks.

Coal

Thanks to record rainfall in the Australian region of Queensland, (the size of Germany+France and then some)local coal mines have been brought to a standstill pushing prices to近120美元/吨。

Of all the bubbly commodities out there, coal may be the most likely to blow in 2011.

I am generally not a big fan of advocating individual investors, but when Daniel Rice ofBlackRockspeaks,I tend to listen.

So here's the million dollar question: do the words of a guy who's beaten 99.9% of U.S. stock fund managers over the last decade mean anything? Better yet, how much?

I don't think there's any doubt coal's going up, but just how high is the name of today's little game.

随机咆哮的离题警告!

I personally get sick to my stomach when I watch the pathetic green energy marketing campaigns blame coal for the death of every tree, sea urchin and still born fetus on earth.

尽管我愿意承认煤炭并不完全是我想定期向肺部射击的东西,但这是仍然the world's #1 power source and in spite of this looming bubble...it's most负担得起。

Here in the U.S. coal continues to maintain its grip on the all-around energy throne in spite of a bevy of competitors eternally attempting to unseat it.

So here's your chance guys, tell me about coal.

它在做什么?它要去哪里?最重要的是...

您买了多少钱?

For those of you planning on being in Houston next month, I'd suggest paying close attention to the comments.

Darn it Midas... don't go wrecking the easiest commodities trade of 2011! (joking of course)

基于2008年商品泡沫,债务驱使西方政府试图挤压“政府支出”,这可能是2011 - 2015年替代能源补贴的坏消息。

Plus, we've only recouped ~50% of our gains from the 2008 commodities (coal) bubble, so based on pure technicals, we still have some upside. Technical traders appear to rule the markets these days, and if enough speculators manage to coalesce at the right time, the 2008 highs seems reachable. If you play along, just be prepared to sell at the drop of a hat.

Good job staying compliant haha j/k But on a serious note. I never traded the stuff but I am interested in reading a few point of views on this. It might actually be worth some looking into......

Please don't make me talk to you like an asshole...

With China and India building new coal fired power plants every few days and almost every emerging market relying on the coal as a cheap power source, I only see coal going up.

Coal explosions are fun to watch.

According to wiki: Coal can spontaneously ignite when exposed to oxygen which causes it to react and heat up when there is insufficient ventilation for cooling

煤炭是东南各州拥有如此便宜的电价的原因。好吧,这是他们不能在法律上出口力的事实。他们可以进口电源。也许更高的煤炭价格会增加周围地区进口水平?
