Tax Reform in This Election Year: It's Not Likely
Which Credit Card Rewards Does the IRS Care About?
TheStreet.com's Jim Cramer says you have to be bullish on the commodity when we're using more of it than ever, it's running out and $100 a barrel doesn't even sound crazy anymore.Can you trust the International Energy Agency to be right about how oil demand will be blunted by high prices and how consumption will decline?
First, let's deal with demand. I haven't seen any slowing in demand in any of the indicators I use, in part because gasoline hasn't kept pace with the commodity. Cars, certainly, haven't made any strides in using less gasoline, and news right now out of Ford (NYSE: F) (Cramer's Take) is that there's really been no progress whatsoever.
How about heating demand? I have seen no switch whatsoever to another fuel because of the rise. Not one bit, or you would see a nat gas rally.
How about power plant demand? I am willing to think that some power plant manufacturers will debate switching, but building a new coal plant is something no one feels comfortable with without new standards. Nothing's happened along these lines, though.
