Biofuels from nonfood chain feedstock sources are viable alternative fuels

November 4, 2009

Biofuels do harm, aren't they? | pellets-wood.com

The biofuels and alternative energy project models that were originally based on feedstock materials from the food chain commodities have been shown to a failure, something many already knew.Not only did they add to the upward pressures on food chain commodities, especially corn and soyoil, they brought added deforestation pressures in several developing economies.Additional fertilizers and pressures on already low water supplies in some areas were additional exacerbations to the equation.The new generation of feedstock for biofuel production will be from nonfood chain sources and will add new benefits into the biofuel equation.

Transport fuel costs and economic recovery

The ups and downs of diesel | www.chron.com

Energy costs are at the heart of all economies and impact growth and most certainly recoveries from downturns. Transport fuel costs are second only to power generation in terms of importance to economic growth.

There is more to this than meets the eye

June 15, 2009

Gazprom CEO Sees Oil at $85 A Barrel by Year’s End | www.rigzone.com

CEO Miller is on target and probably has deeper insight than he showed in this interview. As certain economies begin to recover and others begin to feel the effects of their stimulus, the decline in demand will ease and gradually produce upward pressures on price. Inflation risk, especially in the US economy will also play a role in driving prices, especially if crude remains linked singularly to the dollar.

Jinhui Shipping's Gloomy Outlook

June 4, 2009

Dry reality check | www.tradewinds.no

Jinhui Shipping (Oslo:JIN.OL) reported disappointing numbers coupled with a gloomy outlook on the near-term market, despite the recent recovery in dry bulk rates.  I agree with their market forecast, but Jinhui's near-term prospects have more to do with capacity.

Demand Improvement Won't Help Dry Bulk

May 26, 2009

Bulker boomerang | www.tradewinds.no

Some iron ore contract renewals in Japan, impressive 1Q Chinese iron ore imports, and expectations of the impacts of stimulus packages have vastly improved market sentiment for a continued improvement in dry bulk shipping rates.  This is "irrational exuberance."
