This Time It’s Different

More famous last words may never have been uttered, but editor Jason Williams sees some major differences in the oil market this time around. More famous last words may never have been uttered, but editor Jason Williams sees some major differences in the oil market this time around. [Wealth Daily] Jason Williams / Jul 11, 2022 This Time It’s Different Talk about some famous last words, right? Every time I hear someone say those fateful words, “This time it’s different,” I’m reminded of all the times I’ve heard that before and it hasn’t really been different at all. But this time, I’m the one saying it! And I’m pretty sure it really is different this time… Oil Patch Cage Match In case you didn’t know, oil stocks and prices are up a good 40% this year. Also, in case you didn’t know, they’re down over 20% in the past month too! Talk about some volatility in that marketplace, huh? The bulls and bears are in a cage match and only one can win… [cagematch] Shares and prices are up because we’re in the midst of an energy crisis. ESG investing and government policies have curtailed oil industry expansion in the U.S. for the better part of a decade. And oil companies also lost a lot of money the last time prices collapsed. So they’re extra wary about spending too much to increase production, too. So instead of adding everything they can to the supply side of the equation, they’re expanding at a measured pace and returning as much as possible to the shareholders who stayed loyal. The New Emperor of Energy Storage You’re looking at the future of a $3.3 trillion industry. Thanks to this groundbreaking innovation, clean energy can be fed to the power grid 24/7... Regardless of whether the sun is shining or the wind is blowing. I call it the "Newton Battery," and it crushes every other battery on the market. The Swiss and the Saudis are already using it. And grids across the globe will be using this battery before we know it. It’s all possible thanks to one tiny company’s patented tech. The best part is that 99% of investors have no idea that it just went public... [Get in on the ground floor now, before it's too late.]( Then there’s OPEC. It’s running out of oil. It keeps talking about boosting export targets to get more crude on the market. But it can’t even hit the lower targets it's already set, so it’s just lip service at best. And of course, we can toss Russia in there as a culprit too. Although it’s selling more oil now than at any time in history. And it’s selling it at a discount. But prices are falling because investors see a recession heading straight our way and they know that the last time the world faced a recession, oil prices tanked. They’re betting on what’s known as demand destruction. And it’s a solid bet to make. Last time the world went through a recession, it lasted from December 2007 to June 2009. People had less money so they cut back on things that cost money. Driving was a big part of that. People drove a lot less to avoid spending so much on gas. And oil company stocks dropped a good 20%–40% during that time. Oil prices fell drastically. Lots of companies went bankrupt. Investors are worried that’ll happen again if we really go into the deep recession it looks like we're headed for. But that’s where I see some distinctions that could make so that this time, it actually is different. Shrinking Fields and Growing Demand First off, in the run-up to the last global recession in 2007, oil prices had been on the rally up the charts. And companies were trying to take advantage of those high prices. So they pumped everything they could into capital expenditures and grew their operations. In fact, in the five years leading up to that recession, oil production grew by about 6%. It doesn’t sound like much, but the number really doesn’t matter. It’s the fact that production was expanding. In the five years leading up to this recession (the one we’re about to see or are already in), oil production has fallen by over 2%. So there’s a big difference. Last time this happened, we were producing more oil every day and flooding the market just as demand destruction was setting in. Endless Power From a Device Thinner Than a Business Card It can turn every home, skyscraper, and stadium into its own “power plant” — capable of generating its own endless clean electricity 24/7... No storage batteries, generators, or ugly solar panels required. Not even the power grid is needed! This new device is about to create a seismic shift in the global energy industry. [Check out my research on this disruptive little firm.]( This time, we’ve been producing less oil, so we’re not really in danger of flooding the market like last time. OPEC also played a role last time as it stepped up production in an attempt to drive U.S. oil companies out of business. That backfired, and this time around, it looks like it’ll be a lot harder for OPEC to step up production (since many member nations already aren’t hitting targets). So fields are shrinking this time, not growing. And there’s a case to be made that demand won’t be destroyed but will actually grow in the very near future. There’s the summer driving season. We’re in it. And with flights getting canceled here and there and everywhere, a lot of folks are taking to the highways to get where they’re going this summer. Then there’s the idea of a gas tax holiday floated by the federal government. And there’s the idea of gas stimulus payments to individuals floated by some states. Both of those things would do one thing, and that’s create an artificial boost in demand. If demand destruction happens when it costs too much, then by reducing the cost, we’ll essentially boost the demand. And that leads to a basic Economics 101 lesson: When you increase demand and keep supply constant (or reduce it), prices go UP… The Expert’s Expert So that’s why I’m a believer that it’s going to be different this time. There’s less oil being produced. And demand is about to get a boost from driving season and government interference. The combination of those two things means prices should go up again. And that means more profits for those oil companies to share with investors. And that brings me to the real reason I’m writing to you today: I’m an income guy. It’s my favorite kind of investment. Sure, it’s exciting to see a penny stock rip up the charts. But what really makes me smile is seeing companies pay me just for owning their stock. You’ll Kick Yourself if You Miss out on This... A few years ago, one of our top analysts, Christian DeHaemer, told me to buy Bitcoin. I didn’t do it. And I’m still kicking myself, because I could have made a 2,528% gain on his recommendation. Now he’s been tracking a major technology breakthrough that’s about to unleash a $350 billion wave of wealth. He predicts people who get in early have a shot at colossal gains. Don’t make the same mistake I did and miss out... [Click here to get the full story on this revolutionary tech right now.]( I don’t have to sell my shares to make a profit. And I can reinvest the money if I don’t need it right away. So when my friend and top-notch energy analyst Keith Kohl started talking major payouts coming from the oil patch, I was all ears… [dumbo] And he did not disappoint. Not in the slightest… You see, Keith’s identified three oil stocks that not only have the biggest potential for massive gains, but are also set up to pay out millions in profits to anyone who’s a shareholder. It’s the best of both worlds: massive potential for capital appreciation as the share price recovers from this recent sell-off, PLUS massive potential for profit sharing as oil prices climb back up on rising demand. It’s a win-win. And I want you to be a winner-winner. So I got Keith to let me share his research today and today only. He’s been kind enough to put together [a detailed report]( for me to include with this article. And I highly suggest you give it some attention RIGHT NOW. First, because it probably won’t be available after today… And second, because the swings in this market come fast and furious… And I want you in for the next big move to the upside. So [check out what Keith uncovered]( and get yourself invested for the win. Then keep an eye out for my emails and articles because I’ve got a lot more coming your way!
