[Energy and Capital logo] Catastrophic Trade [Christian DeHaemer Photo] By [Christian DeHaemer]( Written Nov. 20, 2018 Yesterday every sector was down, including most commodities. One sector that bucked the trend was orange juice. As I write this, my wife is home sick with a brutal cold, or maybe it's the flu — who knows? But one thing I had to pick up from Giant along with tomato soup (Campbell's, NYSE: CPB) and Theraflu (GlaxoSmithKline plc, NYSE: GSK) was their fresh-squeezed OJ, which sells for over 10 bucks a pop. It looks like the cold weather we are having here in the Northeast is going to continue. They are predicting that Thanksgiving will have temperatures 15 to 25 degrees below normal. 3 Reasons Bitcoin Could Soon Be “Extinct” I warned investors not to buy Bitcoin. Bitcoin lovers went berserk — but we were right. The truth is, Bitcoin is a dinosaur. I know of 3 cryptos far better than Bitcoin. I’ve just recorded a free video about the 3 cryptocurrencies poised to knock the socks off Bitcoin & dominate the crypto market.

It then sold off most of its gains, but now it is back. It's been incredibly volatile this week. UGAZ was up 20% yesterday alone. This volatility was caused not only by the lack of natural gas in storage coupled with an early winter storm, but also due to a huge short position. Why anyone would be short winter is beyond me, but it happened. Natural gas prices moved so high, so fast that it destroyed the shorts and sent at least one hedge fund to the bone yard. Here is a note one hedge fund, OptionSellers.com, sent out: Image to Enlarge The options fund not only blew all its money, but it also now has a debit. If you invested with this firm, you’d be out all your money plus some... There is nothing like being on the right side of a big winner like Crisis and Opportunity — unless it's when you get to take out some hedge fund with bad ideas at the same time. This Chart Reveals When the Next Crash Will Hit We’ve just released a chart EVERY retiree (or soon-to-be) needs to see. It predicted the housing crisis and Great Recession BEFORE it happened. It pinned the dot-com market collapse to the exact month. And, in fact, it’s warned of every recession since before Ronald Reagan was in the Oval Office. Now it’s sending a chilling warning that should TERRIFY you... [Click here]( to see the chart for yourself. Let it Snow This got me thinking of other winter stock trades. There is Vail Resorts (NYSE: MTN), the owner of ski resorts that loves a snowy winter. But then again, after a five-year run up, it isn’t cheap, with a PEG ratio of 9.18 and a forward P/E of 29. Public Service Enterprise Group (NYSE: PEG) is an electric and gas utility in the Northeast. That could be a solid safe buy. V.F. Corp. (NYSE: VFC) makes North Face and Timberland brands of winter gear. But the chart seems a little toppy. And the North Face fad is fading out. Toro (NYSE: TTC) makes snow blowers. The value is a bit high at nine times book. Also the slowdown in housing doesn't bode well for Toro’s growth. Douglas Dynamics (NYSE: PLOW) outfits commercial snow removal vehicles. PLOW looks to be the best of the bunch. It has a P/E of 13 and a PEG ratio of 1.27. It also pays a 2.82% dividend. Another winter trade is coal. Coal prices are soaring. They have almost doubled since 2016, going from $40 a ton to $78. FocusEconomics is reporting: Fourth-quarter Pacific basin thermal coal prices will likely average 8% more than forecast last month, due to the prospect of strong Chinese demand and limited Australian output. It estimated Asia-Pacific benchmark Newcastle prices to average USD 105/t in October-December, up from a forecast of USD 97/t a month ago but still 6% lower than the latest Global Coal index price of USD 112.09/t. I’ve found one coal miner that is exporting to Asia and pays a 10.53% dividend.
