		<description><![CDATA[by Tony Daltorio, Investment U Research They don’t call Australia the lucky country for nothing. It must be luck to have such abundant amounts of energy, metals, minerals and agricultural commodities, not to mention residing so close to China and India, two countries with large populations and a seemingly insatiable appetite for such natural resources. And that luck shows again in the recently approved, multi-billion dollar, Gorgon liquefied natural gas (LNG) project, which is spreading good fortune to the foreign companies involved in the venture and the investors who know that Australia is where it’s at… Australia currently has the 14th largest known gas reserve in the world, and many expect it to make the world’s top ten list in that category sooner than later. Dr. Graeme Behtune, the director ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, U.S. oil major Chevron Corp. (CVX) and its partners announced the final investment decision on the massive Gorgon liquefied natural gas (LNG) venture in Australia following the receipt of the necessary government approvals. The company said that its Australian subsidiary will proceed with the construction of the project later this year. Chevron holds a 50% operated interest in the A$43 billion ($37 billion) project, with the other partners being ExxonMobil Corp. (XOM) and Royal Dutch Shell PLC (RDSA). The Gorgon gas fields, off the coast of Western Australia, are estimated to contain 40 trillion cubic feet of gas deposits and have an expected economic life of at least 40 years from the time of start-up.

		<description><![CDATA[Earlier today, Chevron Corp. (CVX) &#8212; the second-biggest U.S. energy company &#8212; entered into multiple deals to sell nearly 3 million tons of liquefied natural gas (LNG) per annum from its Gorgon venture in Australia. The company said that its Australian subsidiaries have signed three binding long-term Sales and Purchase Agreements to supply LNG to Japan and South Korea. As per the first contract, Chevron would provide 1.375 million tons of LNG a year to Japan’s Osaka Gas, while the second deal calls for the company to supply 1.1 million tons per annum to Tokyo Gas. Both the contracts span over a period of 25 years. The final agreement will see 0.5 million tons being exported to South Korea&#8217;s GS Caltex (50% owned by Chevron) for up to 20 years. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by David Fessler, Advisory Panelist Every country needs a few basic ingredients in order to achieve healthy, sustained economic growth. Reliable sources of energy. A modern, efficient infrastructure, consisting of a good road and rail system, reliable power grids and high-speed digital communications networks. And if a country wants to be considered a “global economic powerhouse,” it’s nearly impossible for it to do so without these critical building blocks. So it’s not too surprising that China is spending unprecedented amounts of money to beef up its infrastructure. It’s also spending huge amounts of money on long-term oil and gas contracts. And with nearly $2 trillion on hand, it’s the perfect time for China to go on an energy acquisition spree. Right now, it’s spending like a thirsty sailor on shore ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The world’s largest publicly traded oil company, Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM), is in discussions with top Indian technology firms for outsourcing several IT contracts worth up to $1 billion. This comes just a day after BP (BP) awarded over $1.5 billion worth of outsourcing contracts to India. Like other oil majors, Exxon also runs on an SAP platform across the company’s chemical and oil businesses in over 200 countries. In the midst of economic turbulence, outsourcing and offshoring of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) maintenance and support are gaining momentum to save the company’s operational costs. For instance, BP expects to save around $500 million over five years by reducing the number of its suppliers to 5 from around 40. Low cost is one of the Exxon’s competitive advantages.

(CVX), the second-biggest U.S. energy company, gained approval from the Australian environment ministry to start its Gorgon liquefied natural gas (LNG) venture on the Barrow Island nature reserve. The decision is subject to conditions on managing and protecting local fauna, especially the endangered flatback turtle. Chevron holds a 50% operated interest in the $42 billion project, with the other partners being ExxonMobil Corp. (XOM) and Royal Dutch Shell PLC (RDSA). The government approval to Australia&#8217;s single largest natural resources project paves the way for a final investment decision by the Gorgon joint venture participants, once they get the nod for production licenses and construction plans.

The Dow Jones industrial average edged up 3.32 points, or 0.03%, to end at 9,509.28.  The Standard &#38; Poor’s 500-stock index fell 0.56 points to end at 1,025.57, and the NASDAQ fell 2.92 points, or 0.14%, to 2,017.98.  On the New York Stock Exchange, winners narrowly edged losers on volume of 1.23 billion shares.

		<description><![CDATA[A sharp rebound in Chinese shares helped erase yesterday’s slump and sent Asian stocks sharply higher Thursday, a day after Shanghai’s big fall ignited fears of a Chinese stock collapse and triggered a selling spree around the world.  Asian markets also drew comfort from an overnight recovery on Wall Street after a surprise drop in U.S. crude stockpiles lifted hopes for an economic recovery and sent investors back on the buying table. Shanghai&#8217;s main index jumped 126 points, or 4.5%, to 2,911.58, while Japan&#8217;s Nikkei 225 stock average climbed 179.41 points, or 1.8%, to 10,383.41.  Hong Kong&#8217;s Hang Seng rose 374.63, or 2%, to 20,336.36.  South Korea’s Kospi advanced 2% to 1,576.39. Stock futures pointed to a higher open on Wall Street Thursday.  Dow Jones industrial average futures rose 24, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Exxon Mobil Corp. (XOM) declared that the first liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo has arrived at the Adriatic LNG regasification terminal located offshore of Porto Levante, Italy. The terminal is the first offshore gravity based structure in the world for unloading, storage and regasification of LNG. The terminal is owned by Qatar Terminal Limited (a Qatar Petroleum subsidiary owning 45%), Exxon Mobil Italiana Gas (45%) and Edison (10%). The regasification terminal utilizes Exxon Mobil proprietary technology. Designed around a large concrete structure, the terminal houses two LNG storage tanks, a regasification plant and facilities for mooring and unloading LNG vessels. Once it reaches full operational capacity later in 2009, the terminal will be able to deliver 775 million cubic feet of natural gas per day or approximately 10% of Italy’s ]]></description>

After all, these companies have been making money off us hand over fist for quite some time. Of course that doesn’t mean that they aren’t still making money. Exxon Mobil (NYSE: XOM) reported that profit dropped 66% last quarter. Although it still made $3.95 billion, it’s just not making money hand over fist like last year. In a eerily similar report, Royal Dutch Shell ADR (NYSE: RDSA) said that it’s profit dropped 67% to $3.82 billion. ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP) fared even worse, with profits plummeting 76% to $1.3 billion. Hard times indeed in the petroleum industry. This all comes on the ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by The Investment U Research Team We don’t know if its scaremongering, boasting, gamesmanship or true prognostication, but this morning we’re looking at a couple of reports – One from Standard Bank Group on gold’s price future, and the other from Saudi Arabia warning of $200 oil prices. Gold has been fluctuating – it’s currently at $950. And oil has been sitting around $60 a barrel. Oil looks to be the safer of the two bets here. Besides, we’d rather see the opportunity for a 230% return on oil than a 32% return from gold. While the Saudi’s argue that oil’s price is going to rise because of the lack of investment in production, its pretty clear that oil’s price will rise because two big reasons.

		<description><![CDATA[by The Investment U Research Team If the markets weren’t walking on eggshells already, they didn’t need an outbreak of swine flu to put them back in the intensive care ward. We’ve been looking for proximate causes for a pullback in the markets, but swine flu wasn’t one of them. For the ultra-cynical, start shorting airline stocks like Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV) and Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL), and buying any biotech that has to do with flu vaccines or heap masks. It’ll be the knee-jerk reactions to any whisper of plague. But it might be too late to go that route for investors; the biggest gains have already been made. For traders it’s a different story – they should love the volatility this adds. For investors looking for what’s ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While downside risks remain, the overall outlook for the oil sector has improved in recent days, owing largely to the tentative signs of a supply response to anemic global demand. With demand falling sharply due to worldwide economic problems, inventories started building at a faster rate since last fall. In response, OPEC (which accounts for roughly 40% of all oil supplies) announced a number of production cuts. While there was ample skepticism early on regarding OPEC&#8217;s ability to enforce the announced cuts, recent evidence suggests a significant level of compliance within the cartel. As such, while oil prices over the coming weeks will track the outlook for the global economy, the commodity&#8217;s improved supply situation is expected to help prices consolidate around current levels. Natural gas, on the other hand, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Is Oil Ready to Skyrocket? by Jason Simpkins Associate Editor, Money Morning Editor’s Note: Oil has been in the news a lot recently, from its roller-coaster movements, to the international issues. Russia and Israel are both helping OPEC bring prices back up. And if 2008 is any indication, oil might be ready for another climb. Our colleagues over at Money Morning think that might only be the tip of the iceberg. Oil Prices Could be Ready to Rally if History is Any Indication Last year’s 54% drop in oil prices may have set the table for a rally similar to the one experienced in 1999, when prices doubled after a similar decline. The so-called “forward curve of futures contracts” traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange suggests prices will rise ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[OPEC: Lots of Oil, No Power Oil prices have dropped. After OPEC announced that it would cut productions by 2.2 million barrels a day – it steepest cut ever. But in response, Wall Street has done little more than yawn. In fact, prices actually went down. The price of oil per barrel dropped again this morning to $39.90, under its 4-year low. Merrill Lynch’s oil guru, Francisco Blanch, thinks oil could reach $25, while we suggested $20 just last week. No one seems to know or have any control over where oil is going, least of all OPEC. It couldn’t stop oil from going to $147, perhaps its influence on the price of oil lost. Has it underestimated the amount of demand destruction occurring in the market as well? OPEC ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Repurchase Cutbacks Identify the Weak&#8230; and the Poor Standard &#38; Poor&#8217;s just reported that third-quarter stock buybacks declined by almost 48% amongst S&#38;P 500 firms. Cumulatively, that&#8217;s almost $156 billion less for the full year than 2007. These repurchase cutbacks give us a window into who&#8217;s healthy &#8211; and who&#8217;s not. Companies that buy back shares have higher profits and generally outperform those that do not. Firms worried about income or financing are going to be the first ones to cut back or suspend share buybacks. Surprisingly, the Information Technology sector accounts for 25% of all buybacks. While Exxon Mobil (NYSE: XOM) took the top spot, energy companies only accounted for 18% of buybacks. That&#8217;s low, considering their record-breaking profits this year. Does this spell trouble for gas giants in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Will The Price of Oil Per Barrel Drop to $20? In a sharp reversal from earlier this year, when traders were looking at $147 barrels of oil and pundits claimed it would never go below $100 ever again, the price of crude oil continues to make new lows. Oil hovers around $43.71 per barrel and looks like it could go even lower. The United States Oil Fund ETF (NYSE: USO) is also hovering near all-time lows. It&#8217;s currently at $34.96, barely above its 52-week low of $33.08 and well below its high of $119.17 set in July. The price for a barrel of crude has remained relatively stable over the last 25 years, except of the past four years, which have seen prices skyrocketing. It explains why oil giants like Exxon ]]></description>
