| | energy stocks: Hedge Funds Forecast Windfall in Europe's Growing Power Market | | 2007-06-15 10:44:00 | | Hedge fund manager Marcel Melis ignores stock charts, commodities reports and bond prices as he sips his morning coffee. All his attention is focused on one thing: the weather. Melis analyzes forecasts for areas from the snowcapped mountains of Norway to the beaches of Spain's Costa del Sol to predict changes in demand for power and gas. The founder of Energy Capital Management BV, which has raised $60 million and started trading in October, targets returns of 25 to 30 percent. ``If you don't know what the weather is doing you have no chance making money trading energy,'' Melis, 38, says in his ninth-floor office overlooking Amsterdam's biggest power plant. The number of hedge funds with more than a quarter of their capital in European energy jumped fivefold to 50 last year as German utilities began releasing data on plant outages, helping traders forecast supply in the region's largest market, according to Energy Hedge Fund C | | By: energy BLOG | | |
| | eNergy Stocks: Stop Blaming Oil For High Gasoline Prices | | 2007-06-08 06:20:00 | | If you've been wondering why gasoline prices have been so high lately with crude oil trading at only $66 per barrel, the answer can be found at the refineries. This week's TWIP (This Week in Petroleum) from the Energy Information Administration has some interesting commentary and, as always, abundant charts to tell the story of how retail gasoline prices have fallen for the second consecutive week, down five cents to $3.16 per gallon. First, it should be clear that this is not an oil problem. U.S. oil inventories, the biggest raw material cost for gasoline (duh!) have been at or above the range considered normal for this time of year. There is no oil problem - that will occur sometime in the future, maybe soon, we'll see. Yet, prices at the pump remain near record highs, particularly here on the West Coast where special formulation requirements and higher taxes almost always result in higher prices. Lucky us - at least there's no big brown cloud hanging over the Western U.S. (e | | By: energy BLOG | | |
| | eNergy Stocks: it close lower as inventories rise | | 2007-06-07 02:17:00 | | Oil and gas stocks gave up some of their recent gains Wednesday, pulled down by a drop in the broader market and a rise in U.S. supply data that roiled petroleum prices. The Amex Oil Index (XOI :1,376.61, -20.97, -1.5% ) closed down 1.5%, deeper than its earlier loss of 1%, at 1,376.61 points. That's the lowest close for the benchmark index since Thursday. Sunoco Inc. (SUN :80.20, -3.17, -3.8% ) led decliners, closing the day 3.8% lower at $80.20. Marathon Oil (MRO :124.99, -2.27, -1.8% ) closed 1.8% lower at $124.99, and Valero Energy Corp. (VLO :74.26, -1.76, -2.3% ) lost 2.3%. Crude for July delivery closed with a gain of 35 cents at $65.95 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange after trading as low as $65.25 earlier in the day.

| | eNergy Stocks: Crude tops $66 a barrel; Amex Oil Index clears 1,400 points for first time | | 2007-06-04 22:45:00 | | Oil and gas stocks pushed further ahead Monday, extending last week's gains on surging oil prices and $6.5 billion worth of natural gas asset sales by Virginia-based energy provider Dominion Resources -- the biggest of several gas deals driving the market.

| | eNergy Stocks: Amex Oil Index advances to all-time high | | 2007-06-02 09:07:00 | | Oil stocks pushed into record territory Friday, carried by a surge in crude-oil prices back above the $65 mark and a raft of positive economic data that continued to stir investors' appetite for the energy industry. Shoring up the gains was a 40-point jump by the Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI : 13,668.11, +40.47, +0.3% ) . Concerns over a possible move to jack up interest rates eased Friday after the government reported core consumer prices are now running at 2% annually, within the Federal Reserve's comfort zone.

| | eNergy Stocks: Sector hands in strong performance in May | | 2007-06-02 03:07:00 | | Energy stocks slipped back into negative territory Thursday, unable to sustain a rally fueled by a bullish report on U.S. crude supplies. The Amex Oil Index (XOI : 1,388.08, +20.22, +1.5% ) , after hitting an all-time high of 1,380 points, drifted 0.2% below the previous session's close, finishing the session at 1,367.9 points. The turnaround spoiled a mid-morning surge in oil stocks shares triggered by the Energy Information Administration's report of a 2-million-barrel drop in crude supplies last week, their first decline in a month and a half. Energy traders had expected supplies to rise.Oil stocks surrender gainsAt the same time, the EIA reported gasoline inventories rose for a fourth consecutive week, up 1.3 million barrels -- near the high end of analysts' expectations.

The DME's Oman crude oil futures for August delivery was at $64.17 a barrel at 4:17 p.m. Singapore time, down from the opening trade of $64.70. The September contract was at $64.75. The DME is competing with ICE's Dubai contract as a marker for as much as 12 million barrels a day of high-sulfur, or sour, crude oil exports to Asia. Atlanta-based ICE beat the DME to the punch by starting trading on May 21. The two groups are offering alternatives to global benchmark prices tied to low-sulfur grades West Texas Intermediate, traded on Nymex, and Brent, that changes hands on the ICE Futures exchange in London. ``It's quite good for the physical traders and I hope it will be successful,'' said Tetsu Emori, chief | | By: energy BLOG | | |

By midday the sector had backed off its opening highs but was still cruising toward a positive finish. The Amex Oil Index (XOI :1,357.14, +18.84, +1.4% ) was up 0.9%, the Amex Natural Gas Index (XNG : 506.65, +3.51, +0.7% ) was up 0.2%, and the Philadelphia Oil Service Index ($OSX : 248.12, +3.66, +1.5% ) , hardest hit of the three indexes in Thursday's sell-off, was up 0.9%.

| | eNergy Stocks: it is slip following natural-gas data | | 2007-05-24 21:30:00 | | by Jim JelterAfter several days of record-highs, energy stocks were taking a breather Thursday, moving edging lower on slightly bearish natural-gas supply data but trapped in a tight trading range. By mid-morning, the Amex Oil Index (XOI :1,335.50, -22.60, -1.7% ) was off 0.2%, the Philadelphia Oil Service Index ($OSX:502.83, -10.40, -2.0% ) was down 0.6%.

The Energy Department reported that the volume of U.S. natural gas in storage rose 104 billion cubic feet in the week ended May 18. Analysts had predicted a rise of about 96 billion cubic feet. Total stocks now stand at 1.946 trillion cubic feet, down 205 billion cubic feet from a year ago but 334 billion cubic feet more than the five-year average.
