Oil
The market is waking up to the bullish gas fundamentals as seen by a strong rally in the price of natural gas. The company will manage oil trading in the territory controlled by US-backed Kurdish forces and modernize the oil fields that they and the US-led coalition currently control. Kurdish militias and US troops control a larger part of the Syrian oil resources, including al-Rmelan and al-Omar oil fields.

For this reason, I believe that investors looking to trade natural gas should consider doing so through the GAZ ETP. Here’s what happened to the price of natural gas during this time period.

MACRO The Nasdaq 100 closed yesterday at a new record high and cleared 11,000 on the close for the first time after two prior tests. While I have a positive long-term view for Apple and the tech-heavy Nasdaq index, the upside is probably limited due to the high valuation and recent overbought condition. No matter what the end game is, Dakota Access and the US Army Corps of Engineers want this issue resolved quickly because of the current political environment. Apple and the top companies comprising the Nasdaq are highly profitable companies and likely to perform well over multiple years.
Harrison said it went way up during the initial liquidity crisis and has come back down after the Fed intervened. So, it is possible that the Nasdaq keeps running higher until the other indexes rise to overbought conditions (above 70 on the RSI).
