Crude Oil Outlook

Crude Oil is in the process of making its bottom. It is a complicated bottom but yes, crude oil is making a bottom. I would not necessarely buy crude oil right now but in 2 or 3 years we will see that this was a bottoming pattern in oil. (United States Oil Fund LP ETF (USO), Nymex Crude Oil futures)

Views On Gold

I expect gold to be down more in the next year or two partially because the U.S. Dollar will be strong.  (Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (GDX), Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (NYSE:GDX), Newmont Mining (NEM), Barrick Gold (ABX), Novagold (NG))

Emerging Markets Will Suffer

Not all emerging markets are the same but most will be affected by the rise of interest rates in the United States. But it will only be a temporary worry because history shows it is only the third or forth increase in interest rates that one really has to worry.

The first rate increase hurts, the second rate increase hurts but the markets usually recovers. I would suspect emerging markets including India will be affected when they raise interest rates in December but there will be a recovery. After that be very worried about 2017 and 2018.

The Fed Will Raise Rates After The Election

The Federal Reserve will be raising interest rates after the election. That will have an effect on world markets , but a temporary effect. It is after the third time the Fed raises interest rates that we should start to worry, that we should be very, very, very worried not just in America but everywhere.

The U.S. Stock Market May Turn Into A Bubble

I own very few shares anywhere, none in the U.S. in fact I am short in the U.S. although I am reassessing that now because it occurs to me that all the money is going to flee into the U.S. Dollar now, so that may mean that the U.S. stock market can turn into a huge bubble as it did in the 1920`s.

Alternative Energy Is Not Competitive

There is alternative energy but it is not very competitive if crude oil is at 50 dollars a barrel. Most alternative energy has to be subsidized by some government wether it is sun power, wind power, they are not great yet.

At 300 dollars a barrel for crude oil they will be very competitive but at the moment we have 50 dollar a barrel oil. (PowerShares WilderHill Clean Energy ETF (PBW), United States Oil Fund LP ETF (USO), Nymex Crude Oil futures)
