And it will stay red. There hasn’t been a wave of capital off the sideline after the most aggressive efforts by hedge funds to short or sell in 15 years. Instead, we’re witnessing a combination of Buy the Dips and short squeezes as the week progresses. The smart money is on the sidelines, and retail traders are chasing gains in soon-to-be bankrupt companies like Revlon. This is not normal... Energy stocks remain in freefall as investors fret about a global recession. This shouldn’t be surprising since momentum went negative on June 8, and the reading took every single S&P 500 into the red with it. The massive run on energy appears to be ending. Last week, we saw the strongest amount of put buying on the SPDR Energy ETF (XLE) since June 2008. It just so happens that when put buyers purchased that many puts on the XLE about 14 years ago, this coincided with the peak of West Texas Intermediate crude prices at about $145 per barrel. This fast-and-furious selling will likely continue until oil hits its next support level of $100. If it breaks down even more in the days ahead, the target price for WTI is just $90. Now, I’ve been very bullish on oil since October 2021. However, things are changing a bit. These are the moments to get out of the way, start following momentum, and wait for a new bottom to form. In addition, the ongoing failure by the White House to accommodate the energy sector with actual policy solutions (the heart of the supply problem and higher prices - NOT price gouging) will drag on the industry. Typically, I would be selling cash-secured puts and credit spreads at lower prices, but I don’t know how much this market will correct. This is not a matter of support levels or technicals. It’s about what human beings are willing to buy or sell this commodity for in a period of unprecedented supply and demand uncertainty. I am still very bullish on a handful of names, but now is not when I want to try to time this market. The level of unpredictability is challenging. Cash remains your best friend. The Long-Term Energy Trend One of the most shocking revelations of the day is speculation that Russian hackers may have attacked the Freeport LNG facility earlier this month. An explosion at the facility has knocked out its ability to deliver liquefied natural gas (LNG) to Europe. As a result, the facility will be offline until the end of the year. Various reports in the mainstream press have speculated about a possible attack. However, it will be very difficult to confirm such speculation. Someone will need to step up and fill the gap. The United States will be a major supplier of natural gas to Europe and nations like Japan and India in the future. While Cheniere Energy (LNG) has been the biggest breakout exporter of the last decade, others are ready to accelerate export plans. On Wednesday, Chevron (CVX) announced it would purchase LNG supplies from Cheniere for 15 years. The deal starts in 2027. Chevron also announced plans to buy products from Venture Global, a private LNG manufacturer, as well. These deals don’t require that Chevron take on additional risk or need to develop other facilities. The commitment of significant capital by one of the world’s largest energy companies shows that this is going to be a VERY long-term trend. A company like Chevron doesn’t jump head first into this trade without an effective plan to capitalize for its shareholders. While oil prices are pulling back and speculators are taking money off the table, this recent LNG crisis tied to Freeport may offer an excellent buy-the-dip opportunity in a business that is just getting off the ground. As European nations start burning coal again to address their serious energy shortages, remember that natural gas utility plants create about 50% fewer carbon emissions than coal-fired plants. We might see Europe - which just declared natural gas to be a “Green” energy source earlier this year - turn to more retrofitted natural gas plants as a solution to its long-term carbon emissions goals and for energy security.

The video portal from the Chinese company ByteDance is the hit par excellence, especially among teenagers and young adults. Hardly any other app has been able to grow as quickly as TikTok in recent years. After all, the portal satisfies the need for fast and varied entertainment - without going into too much depth. YouTube Clones TikTok For the top dogs in the video streaming business, TikTok was a wake-up call. And so it came to a development that is actually rather unusual. Western companies copied the Chinese system. Among them: the Alphabet (GOOG) subsidiary YouTube. Just last year, the U.S. tech company launched its own TikTok clone: YouTube Shorts. The principle works similarly to that of the Chinese: short videos, not even a minute long - then scroll down and watch the next one. Just a few months ago, some observers considered the Google Group's short video offensive to be hackneyed and not very promising. After all, TikTok was already the high-reach original. So why use "YouTube Shorts" at all? Is "YouTube Shorts" Now Bigger Than TikTok? But now YouTube has put its critics in their place. The social media company recently published the latest user figures for the "Shorts" service - and they are impressive. According to the figures, "YouTube Shorts" now has 1.5 billion monthly active users. This means that the "Shorts" clone could possibly already be bigger than the original TikTok. The Chinese last published the figure of one billion monthly active users in September 2021. It is clear that TikTok's user base has also grown considerably in the meantime. However, whether this growth was sufficient to defend the top position on the short video market is certainly questionable. But Why Is "YouTube Shorts" So Successful? Analogous to the videos shown there, the answer is quite simple. "YouTube Shorts" benefits directly from YouTube's reach. For example, the social media company had integrated the short video service directly into its parent portal. Both in the web version and in the app, "Shorts" is prominently featured and can be reached via a single click. So the roughly two billion YouTube users already in existence caused the "Shorts" service to grow rapidly. Look: according to a representative survey published by Statista, around 45 percent of YouTube users had already said in July 2021 that they wanted to use the short video portal. Looking at the current user figures, this willingness is likely to have increased significantly again in the meantime. In addition, "YouTube Shorts" was equipped with a monetization feature right from the start. This allows influencers to earn money directly from their short videos via advertising. This attracted a number of well-known YouTube celebrities - along with their millions of followers. My Conclusion For You There were quite a few people who saw the hype surrounding TikTok as a swan song for YouTube. But the U.S. company refused to admit defeat and simply introduced the Chinese company's lucrative concept to its own platform - and apparently with great success. This is of course good news for YouTube and Alphabet, especially in these troubled times. The fact that the Google parent company can rely on its flagship YouTube strengthens the growth story of the tech giant. After all, with advertising revenue of just under $6.9 billion (Q1 2022), the video portal is Alphabet's main drawing card alongside its core Google product. Of course, the success of "YouTube Shorts" alone should not be enough to revive the currently stumbling Alphabet share. External circumstances such as the tighter monetary policy of the U.S. Federal Reserve and the general pessimism of tech shareholders are currently too devastating. For a small glimmer of hope, however, "YouTube Shorts" is certainly enough Best regards, [Bauer Sig] Dr. Gregor Bauer Chief Analyst, European Markets [] --------------------------------------------------------------- [] [] Look Out TikTok, "YouTube Shorts" is Hotter Than Hot [Bauer Pic] Dear Investor, Short, concise video snippets in almost incessant succession: that's the principle behind TikTok.
