FREE ACCESS to our April 26th event: Doug Casey, Nick Giambruno and Justin Spittler will reveal why the marijuana boom is just starting right now. And how 2018 will be the year of marijuana millionaires for those who get into tiny, little known pot stocks today.

Plus, you’ll discover why some of the best profit opportunities in marijuana have nothing to do with growing or producing the plant. Instead, Doug and the team will share the most promising “pick and shovel” plays. These are companies on their way to becoming the next “Home Depot of Pot” and “Amazon of Weed.”

And Doug Casey will break down how he became a marijuana millionaire with a penny pot stock and why he sees bigger opportunities in today’s marijuana boom for those who get in now.

Access to a brand new video training series: Released for the first time exclusively for this event, these 3 trainings will show you:

• Why everyone who thinks the biggest gains in marijuana have already been made are dead wrong. We’re actually at the very start of the biggest marijuana mania in history.

• Why you don’t need to know anything about marijuana or investing for the chance to become a marijuana millionaire in today’s bull market.

• How marijuana stocks are delivering similar gains to Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies… but are much safer and easier to buy. And we’re actually in an earlier stage of the marijuana boom than we are in Bitcoin.

• Why regardless what the federal government does, marijuana legalization is a runaway train and the best opportunity today to turn a couple of hundred dollars into a fortune.

And much, much more…

You’ll be able to watch these short, information packed videos right on your computer or phone.

PLUS… you’ll be able to download the transcripts directly to your computer, print them out and read them at your leisure.

During the first marijuana mania, the best pot stocks averaged peak gains of 24,000%. And that was with just two states (Washington and Colorado) legalizing recreational pot. Now that it’s legal in California, and Canada is set to go recreational this June, we’ll see the biggest marijuana profits in history from this bull market.

You’ll get all the details in our training and Summit.

EIA: Rail Deliveries of Crude Oil and Petroleum Products up 38% in First Half of 2012

How To Position Yourself for a 10 Year Pattern Breakout

Railroads are playing a more important role in transporting U.S. crude oil to refineries, especially oil production from North Dakota's Bakken formation where there is limited pipeline infrastructure to move supplies. The amount of crude oil and petroleum products transported by U.S. railways during the first half of 2012 increased 38% from the same period in 2011, according to industry data.

The number of rail tanker cars hauling crude oil and petroleum products totaled close to 241,000 during January-June 2012 compared to 174,000 over the same period in 2011, according to the Association of American Railroads (AAR). Rail deliveries of crude oil and petroleum products in June alone jumped 51% to 42,000 tanker cars from a year earlier to an average weekly record high of 10,500 tanker cars for the month.

One rail tanker car holds about 700 barrels. This would be equivalent to about 927,000 barrels per day (bbl/d) of oil and petroleum products shipped, on average, during the first half of 2012 versus 673,000 bbl/d in the same period in 2011, and June 2012 shipments were almost 980,000 bbl/d.

Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration, based on Association of American Railroads.
Note: Crude oil and petroleum products rail shipments do not include ethanol. 

In 2009, crude oil accounted for 3% of the combined deliveries in the oil and petroleum products category tracked by AAR. The trade group estimates crude oil now accounts for almost 30% of the rail deliveries in this category, and says that crude oil is responsible for nearly all of the recent growth.

Much of the growth in shipping oil by rail is due to the rise in North Dakota's oil production, which has more than tripled in the last three years. North Dakota surpassed California in December 2011 to become the third biggest oil producing state and took over the number two spot from Alaska in March 2012.

Most crude oil is moved in the United States by pipeline. However, because of limited pipeline infrastructure in North Dakota's Bakken region, oil producing companies there rely on rail to move their barrels. Shipping oil by rail costs an average $10 per barrel to $15 per barrel nationwide, up to three times more expensive than the $5 per barrel it costs to move oil by pipeline, according to estimates from Wolfe Trahan, a New York City based research firm that focuses on freight transportation costs. Wolfe Trahan also notes that using rail tank cars allows oil producers to separate grades of crude more easily and ensure their purity than when different oils are mixed in a pipeline.

Argus Media reports that rail rates for unit trains moving Bakken oil to major refining centers on the Gulf Coast are about $12.75 per barrel to St. James, Louisiana and $12.25 per barrel to Port Arthur, Texas. The unit train delivery rate to New York Harbor is around $15 per barrel.
BNSF is the biggest railway mover of U.S. crude, transporting one-third of Bakken oil production alone with unit trains carrying up to 85,000 barrels of oil. The company's carloadings of crude oil and petroleum products increased 60% during the first six months of 2012.

What's Surprising Me Most about Canadian Natural Gas

From guest analyst Keith Schaefer......

Western Canadian gas exports to the United States could be completely displaced into Northern California by....

1. Abundant, low cost US natural gas production,
2. And by several new gas pipelines in the US,

Says a new market study by Bentek, a US energy analysis company. Overall, Canadian gas exports to the US will drop 2 bcf/d over the next few years, almost 30%, and this impending loss of the northern California market builds upon the loss that western Canadian gas has in lower exports to the US northeast. Increased Canadian demand and declining Canadian supply will pick up some of the slack, but it won’t be enough to offset a significant loss of exports to the US market in the near term, they add.

Bentek’s report, titled “The Big Squeeze”, is a report that also outlines how fast growing production from the Marcellus shale in Pennsylvania is displacing Canadian gas to the lucrative Northeast US market, and how new pipeline capacity carrying low cost gas out of the Rocky Mountains is now set to displace much of Canadian gas to the US Midwest and lucrative California markets.

“What we outlined in our study was complete displacement of Canadian gas into Northern California by the summer of 2014,” says Jack Weixel, Director of Energy Analysis for Bentek.
Last summer I wrote about how the new $6 billion Rockies Express pipeline, or REX, going from Colorado to Ohio, was displacing western Canadian gas production by almost 10%. Lately, US natural gas production from the Marcellus shale has also been displacing Canadian gas to the US Northeast. Canadian suppliers have been able to send more natural gas into the Midwest and Western US to help make up for that drop.

But Bentek says even that market is at risk, and Canadians could see this market get curtailed within the next two weeks, in early December 2010. That’s when low cost Rockies gas supply will start flowing east on the newly installedBison Pipeline. This will give Rockies producers an additional 0.5 Bcf/d (billion cubic feet per day) of capacity out of the Powder River basin in Wyoming. The Bison connects into the Northern Border Pipeline, which moves mostly western Canadian supply.

Weixel expects the Bison Pipeline to create stiff competition for Canadian gas. He says Canadian gas has to get cheaper to stay competitive. “They (Canadian gas producers) need to drop 14 cents (an mcf). Let’s say Rockies gas is $3.50/mcf - that means that AECO (the Canadian natural gas benchmark price out of Edmonton) needs to be priced $3.36 to be competitive in northern California,” says Weixel, adding that the breakeven price for certain Rockies gas producers in the Pinedale and Jonah tight sands plays is “well below $3 per mcf.”

Weixel expects net Canadian exports to drop 2 bcf/d through 2015, out of a total of 6.9 bcf/d now. But it’s not all gloomy for producers – and their shareholde“At the same time exports are declining, you’ve got Canadian demand growing, primarily from oilsands in the west and coal retirements in the east,” he says. “You’ve also got production slipping from conventional gas plays in Alberta. So there is a tightening supply demand balance.

“Traditionally that would lend itself to gas prices getting stronger. But we believe that due to the drop in exports, that there will be just as much gas on hand in Canada as there is now. So if production drops 1.5 bcf/d but exports drop 2 bcf/d, they’re up half a “b” a day.
Canadian gas production is actually going up because of the unconventional plays in BC (read: MONTNEY), but Weixel says the gas rig count in Alberta dropped off a cliff this September, and is about half the number it was last year and about one quarter what it was in 2008.

What’s surprising to me is how little both the industry and investors appear to be concerned about this issue. The Calgary Herald ran a small story on this, and The Daily Oil Bulletin, which is ready by the industry only, ran a story (masthead, or lead story). There are thousands of high paying jobs at stake – mostly in Alberta but also in northern B.C.
