Esmaspäeval tähistavad juudid oma kõige pühamat püha Yom Kippurit. Kuna juute on finantssektoris väga palju, siis esmaspäevane kauplemispäev peaks saama olema ebatavaliselt madala käibega.

Briefing
Barron's Online discusses natural-gas stocks - (APC, CHK, COG, PTEN)
Barron's Online reports it's not every day that natural-gas analysts and traders use words like "bizarre" and "unprecedented" to describe the ups and downs of the gas market. Don't blame it on hyperbole. They are reacting to a market environment in which the stocks of natural gas producers and drillers have shot up even as the price of gas has fallen to multi-year lows. Natural-gas investors are obviously betting that the economy will improve and gas production will decline in the coming year. But with numerous unknowns and a continuing supply glut in the market, bets on improving natural-gas prices look increasingly risky. Gas producers like Chesapeake Energy (CHK), Cabot Oil & Gas (COG) and Anadarko Petroleum (APC), and drilling service companies like Patterson--UTI Energy (PTEN) are trading as if happy days have arrived and gas is both in short supply and in high demand. Booming supply and weakened demand have combined to push prices for the commodity down to levels that haven't been seen since 2002... "There's been a definite disconnect between the commodity (price) and the E&P names," says Peter Vig, the managing partner of hedge fund Roundback Capital. "The Wall Street crowd is more optimistic than the industry itself."
Kui tõsiselt seda võtta? Mind see rõõmust rõkkama ei pane ja vaadates, mida COG teeb, on mul väike kõhklus CHK kohapealt.
