The big picture is:- we have to accept that high oil price is a fact of life and oil will not return to the $25 level. Even some of the energy trusts hedge their production @ $25 to $30, as soon as they come out from the hedge they will sell their future hedge @ a higher price. Usually most companies hedge only a portion of their production so they can still benefit from the higher oil price.
The world experience a high oil price not only because of the Middle East, but the high consumption of oil from US, China & possibly India. People like SUV and powerful car, they are burning all the gas on the road. The car industry seems to encourage that to keep more car on the road.
Even the dogs like VKR and NVG should do well in this environment.

We don't have LT cap gains up here to worry about, just cap gains but I was hoping a strengthening USD would mean the trusts become less attractive to Americans but the NG price is offsetting that... I think I missed shoulder season ...
