Crude Oil: Price Outlook, Fracking

In my view, crude oil is making a bottom. It's a complicated bottom. We will look back someday and say, in 2014-2018 crude oil made its bottom. Known reserves of oil everywhere continue to decline except for fracking but the fracking bubble burst a few years ago. 

Now people know that fracking is not magic and that people can lose money in fracking. (Nymex Crude Oil futures, Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLE), Exxon Mobil (XOM), Marathon Oil (MRO), ConocoPhillips (COP))

Stocks: When To Buy, When To Sell

An old stock market quote from the archives, 

"Historically, you buy stocks when they're yielding 6 percent and selling at eight times earnings. You sell them when they're at 22 times earnings and yielding 2 percent."

Bullish on Agriculture

Jim Rogers has recently shared his thoughts on the agriculture sector and explain why he is so bullish on agricultural commodities:

"No one wants to be a farmer anymore, as compared to the past, when farmers were like masters of the universe for a long period of time."

"The agriculture sector has been a disaster for 35 years. Things are so bad. The average age of an American farmer is 58, the average age in Japan is 68. And do you know that the highest suicide rate in the UK is in the agricultural sector?"
