I am typically not one to blow my own horn. It has nothing to do with humility really. It’s more the fact that typically when it dawns on me that things have been “going pretty well of late”, Murphy (who hates me) applies his %^&*# Law and, well, I’m sure you can guess what happens next. So I should know better but, to review:
1/11: Fading Natural Gas with UNG Options – Highlighted seasonal tendency for Natural Gas (NYSE:UNG) to decline mid-Jan into mid-Feb.

1/19: Blood in the Energy Streets – Highlighted the fact that absolutely nobody anywhere had absolutely anything good to say about energy-related assets (NYSE:XLE) – a classic contrarian signal.
