A CHALLENGE FOR ANY BEARS OUT THERE...

With all the good news worldwide and for this industry it is easy to get euphoric over the prospects for the EnP's and, to a slightly lesser extent, the drillers and O/S companies. I for one can't think of a single bearish argument that is clearly supported by facts while I can think of a half dozen macro trends off the top of my head:

Energy in general
1. Rising world demand
2. Falling world supply
3. rising rig counts
4. Rising prices
5. La Nina expected to bring a more "normal" winter

Gasoline
6. Increasing popularity of gas guzzling tanks

NG:
7. EPA regulations creating new market for NG (electricity generation)

Can anyone come up with some negative trends to help this "hypester" come back to earth?
