Energy demand worldwide is increasing, even according to the latest IEA report. And historically, this is the quarter of the year where the demand figure is the weakest.

In fact, in each of the last several years, the IEA has cut demand estimates in the first quarter only to increase them multiple times later in the year.

And that's not the only thing the pundits missed. You see, there are two market developments combining to open up a range of new investment targets all across the energy sector...

Why Energy Supply Is the New Geopolitical Weapon of Choice

energy parity

It used to be that a geopolitical crisis would spike energy prices - primarily crude oil - merely by showing up.

The idea was that any uncertainty in global cross-border affairs would adversely impact the availability of energy. In turn, that reduced energy supply would usually prompt a spike in oil prices.

These days, unless an event has an almost direct danger of bringing actual overall aggregate supply into question, it has no effect. But there's a new geopolitical "weapon of choice"...

These developments are a reminder that the path toward greater reliance on wind and solar power will not be without short-term problems.

Back then, the two superpowers - the United States and Russia - contested for leverage wherever they could. But the primary battlefield was Africa.

Well, déjà vu is now kicking in.

Here's where the new Cold War is being played out... and how it's going to influence the energy markets, especially oil prices...

Why the Energy Sector's Perfect Storm Is About to Blow Over

energy sector

There is a "perfect storm" brewing in the energy sector, only in the minds of those who created it.

And as storms go, this one has certainly attracted attention. The ongoing concern over supply gluts both in the United States and abroad has combined with a Chinese stock collapse to drive down the price of oil.

Here's our take on why this nasty weather won't be around for long...

The Greek Vote and What It Means for the Energy Sector

By , Global Energy Strategist, Oil & Energy Investor • @KentMoors_OEI -

Greece debt crisis

The energy sector is about to be rocked by the Greek vote. Because whether European creditors like it or not, to avoid contagion to the rest of Europe, they'll need a contemporary version of the Brady Bonds that allowed emerging market countries to refinance defaulted debt some four decades ago.

What happens next will fill the streets of Greek cities with angry citizens who voted a resounding "No" barely two weeks ago.

Here's how the aftershocks of the Greek vote will be felt throughout the energy sector...
