Best trade of the year, and as those stocks soar, Consumer Staples are selling off. So in a world where investors are hunting for income and appreciation, is energy the place to be . Pete, what do you say . I still there is room to the up side. I like the way energy is trading, and we get towards 51, some of the news pushing the Energy Stocks higher. I think its pretty interesting. You look at the xle today, as a matter of fact, up over 2 . Where has been by far the most active area in the options world over the next couple weeks, energy, baker hughes, halliburton. You look at the earnings report, very, very impressive. So do i think its over for energy . Absolutely not. I think were in a new range and i think right now were probably in the middle part. I think a little more up side. Where in energy would you go . Services, first of all. Halliburton the best of breed in that space. Schlumberger more global. If you listen, north america spend and margins going higher. And i think these
Loss, departments and agencies that carry out the policies. It was not always the case. Trumane 1952 president wanted to bring into the white house both the republican and democratic essential nominees to meet with his cabinet and white house staff members, he met with a partisan divide. He had wanted them to come in because he found when he came into office, he was unprepared. He came in january of 1945. Roosevelt died in april, and truman knew nothing of the atomic bomb. Seared by that experience, he wanted to bring people in so they would understand what was ahead of them. Adelaide stephenson accepted, but general eisenhower turned down trumans invitation, in large part because he said he was running against the administrations programs and from the public would be coming into the white house when he was running against it. Truman was very upset. He sent a handwritten note, which she would sometimes do because he could slip by staff, and they would not see it and stop him. So he had
Good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to the renewable fuel standard committee. I am continued to continuing oversight until we find the solution to what has become this deeply flawed program. In 2005, congress established the rfs with the goal of reducing our nations independence on foreign oil and lowers Greenhouse Gas by demanding that biofuels be blended with other fuels until 2022. After that time, they will have bide latitude to decide the volume of biofuels that must be blended into the gas link supply. It has changed dramatically since 2005 and 2007 revision. Demand for oil is lower, due to sluggish Economic Growth and fuel standards. Given the Oil Production, the u. S. Imports much less oil than initially forecasted. In 2005, 2007, we were importing 60 of our oil. Now, it is 27 . I have worked to determine the structure and viability of the rfs to achieve its goals. I have tried to understand the rfs through the eyes of the epa and appreciate how difficult it is for the agency to
Its also why there was an economic speech today in the go to lowcal for economic speeches in motor city u. S. A. Dug an address hosted by the fabled detroit economic club, he framed the ideas that his , quote c opponent has its a lead weight on the american economy. Donald trump the city of detroit is where our story begins. Every policy that has failed our city and so many others is a policy supported by Hillary Clinton. She is the candidate of the past. Ours is the campaign of the future. American workers have paid taxes their whole lives and they should not be taxed again at death. Its just plain wrong and most people agree with that. Were reducing new taxes from 5 to 15 . I am going to cut regulations massively. A Trump Administration will end this war on the American Worker and unleash an Energy Revolution that will bring vast new wealth to our country. We will make america grow again. Mark so among trump small government proposals include a temporary moratorium on financial regul
This hearing will get underway. My apologies for being tardy. Im running around a lot today but thank you all for your patience and welcome to todays hearing on the telephone Consumer Protection act. When passing tcpa 25 years ago congress sought a balanced approach that protects the privacy of individuals and permitted legitimate telemarketing practices. A as a result a number of telemarketing pract is have been significantly reduced or eliminates. For example companies have to maintain donotcall list and could not make solicitation calls before 8 00 a. M. Or after 9 00 p. M. But tcpa is showing its age and there are opportunities to build on the consumer benefits and ensuring consumers fully benefit from modern communications. Consumers should be able to take advantage of technology to help them fall victim to actors though those who ignore do not call requirements. I doubt there is a person in this room whos that not received a recorded mobile voice call telling them theyve won a cr
