Santiago/Getty ImagesThe prospect that interest rates might have peaked is powering gold prices to record highs. Futures for delivery of gold in December settled at $2,071 a troy ounce Friday, topping their previous high of $2051.50 an ounce hit in August 2020. Gold has advanced for seven of the past eight weeks, bringing its gain this year to 11%.

☆ Copper Market Slump Threatens Shift to Wind Power, Electric Cars

China ranks as the world’s largest consumer of copper. Photo: Yin Chao/VCG/Getty ImagesA prolonged slide in copper prices is challenging the world’s shift to renewable energy sources. Mining firms will need to dig up gigantic amounts of new copper over the next several years to supply the transition to renewables. But demand is slumping right now from manufacturers and builders who use the metal in everything from electrical wire to roofing.

When OpenAI unleashed its humanlike ChatGPT software on the world last year, one thing was clear: These AI systems are coming for our jobs. But don’t write off the humans just yet. More than a century ago, the advent of the automobile was bad news for stable hands, but good for mechanics. And AI is already creating new opportunities. Here are a few of them.

☆ California’s Green-Fuel Program Gets Too Popular for Its Own Good
  + stars: | 2023-05-16 | by ( Bob Henderson | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Anaergia’s Rialto bioenergy facility in California captures the methane emissions of up to 1,000 tons a day of food waste and turns it into fuel. Photo: AnaergiaA boom in the production of green trucking fuel is punishing renewable-energy producers across the country, thanks to the shifting market for California’s low-carbon fuel credits. U.S. production of so-called renewable diesel, which is made from feedstocks such as beef tallow and soybean oil, has tripled over the past three years. Truckers and fuel producers say the gains are driven by federal incentives and the state’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard program, which issues resellable credits to firms that sell low-carbon fuels such as ethanol in California.
☆ Sliding Diesel Prices Signal Warning for U.S. Economy
  + stars: | 2023-04-25 | by ( David Uberti | Bob Henderson | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
A nationwide freight slowdown has helped cut U.S. diesel prices by half from last year’s record, raising concerns that parts of the world’s largest economy have begun to slow. Wholesale diesel recently fell to $2.65 a gallon in New York Harbor, down from $5.34 last May, after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine sent commodity markets haywire and turned prices advertised at gas stations into street-level reminders of inflation’s 40-year highs. Record diesel costs made it more expensive to operate excavators at construction sites, run machinery on farms, and haul goods from ports, rail yards or factory floors.
☆ Renewable Diesel Booms Despite Concern Over Effect on Food Prices
  + stars: | 2023-04-07 | by ( Bob Henderson | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Annual production of renewable diesel tripled in the past few years and is projected to keep climbing. U.S. production of renewable diesel hit 5 million gallons a day for the first time in January, according to recent U.S. Energy Information Administration data, continuing a two-year boom. The biofuel is a key part of federal and state government plans to mitigate climate change by cutting carbon emissions. Production has swelled since 2021. Incentives from the Environmental Protection Agency and the state of California, combined with pandemic-depressed demand for conventional fuels, motivated many energy companies to start retooling refineries to make renewable diesel.
☆ How Options-Hedging Turbocharged Oil Volatility
  + stars: | 2023-03-26 | by ( David Uberti | Bob Henderson | Joe Wallace | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Oil has traded this year within a relatively narrow price range. Storage tanks at a California refinery. The economic fears gripping Wall Street have sparked outsize swings in oil prices, exacerbated by trading that investors and analysts say has little to do with the fundamental value of crude. One culprit is an arcane area of trading known on Wall Street as delta hedging, aimed at reducing the risks tied to directional price moves.
☆ Escalating Demand for Soybean Oil Hits Possible Slowdown
  + stars: | 2023-03-19 | by ( Bob Henderson | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Soybeans are a source of meal used mostly for animal feed, as well as soybean oil. Farmers and refiners are worried that a nascent boom in the market for soybean oil is being stalled by a challenge from an unexpected source: the Environmental Protection Agency. Prices for soybean oil, a byproduct left over after crushing the beans for animal feed, soared to records last year owing to growing government incentives to make it into diesel fuel. Then, in December, the EPA proposed to mandate less use of biomass-based diesel through 2025 than many had expected, pruning the value of credits the agency issues to makers of biofuels. Soybean oil futures dropped more than 15% in the week after the announcement.
☆ U.S. Regains Its Energy Clout as Ukraine War Enters Second Year

More oil from shale regions such as the Permian Basin in western Texas is being directed to the Gulf Coast for shipment to overseas markets. A year of war in Ukraine has highlighted the return of oil as a source of U.S. financial influence and geopolitical power. As the West has shunned most Russian energy, unleashing a pressure campaign against the Kremlin’s petroleum revenues, record U.S. crude exports have helped fill the gap in Europe with the oil needed to produce gasoline, diesel and jet fuel.

☆ Gas Prices Poised to Rise Again as Sanctions on Russia Take Effect

Gasoline prices are up some 40% from two years ago. Amanda Morgewicz began delivering groceries for Instacart about two years ago. The extra money was good at first, but with gasoline now costing about $3.40 a gallon on average in the U.S., compared with $2.40 when she started, she is thinking harder about which orders to take on. The jobs that involve too much driving aren’t worth it anymore. “You have to be strategic about which ones you pick because you could really just be breaking even,” said Ms. Morgewicz, who lives in Walden, N.Y.
☆ Dow Industrials Drop Nearly 700 Points on Interest-Rate Concerns

U.S. stock indexes suffered their worst session of the year Tuesday, dragged down by a disappointing forecast from Home Depot and growing concerns that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates higher for longer. After rallying sharply to kick off 2023, stocks have stumbled in recent weeks as hot economic data have made investors anxious about the trajectory of U.S. monetary policy.
☆ Rising Jet-Fuel Costs Threaten to Send Airfares Higher
  + stars: | 2023-02-02 | by ( Bob Henderson | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
The recent surge in jet-fuel prices has yet to be fully priced into airfares, analysts say. Airfares have eased from last year’s highs. Now a resurgence in jet-fuel prices is threatening to push them higher again. Prices for the kerosene-based product have been climbing since December, propelled by diminished supplies after winter storms shut down refineries. Swelling demand has also pushed up prices, as millions of Chinese travelers took to the skies to celebrate the Lunar New Year and newfound freedom from Covid restrictions.
