Heightened tensions in the Middle East, including the possibility of Iran attacking Israel, sent stocks back down and oil prices higher. If the choice is between a weak economy with lower rates or a strong economy with higher rates, we'll take the strong economy every time. Low rates may help with valuation multiples, but it's a strong economy that leads to earnings growth and that's what we, as long-term investors care about. Shelter costs are a major sticking point for overall inflation, which makes Tuesday's housing starts and building permits report a key watch item. We'll get another look at housing with the release of the March existing home sales report on Thursday.

REUTERS/Gary McWilliams/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsNov 6 (Reuters) - U.S. pipeline operator Kinder Morgan (KMI.N) said on Monday it would acquire NextEra Energy Partners' (NEP.N) gas pipelines in South Texas for $1.82 billion. NextEra Energy Partners' (NEP) Texas natural gas pipeline portfolio, STX Midstream, primarily consists of seven pipelines which provide natural gas to Mexico and power producers and municipalities in South Texas. "Upon closing, the proceeds would be sufficient to pay off the outstanding project-related debt," NextEra Energy Partners' CEO John Ketchum said in a statement. The sale price represents an about 10 times multiple on the estimated calendar-year 2023 adjusted core profit for the Texas natural gas pipeline portfolio, NEP said.

REUTERS/Gary McWilliams/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsCompanies Kinder Morgan Inc FollowOct 18 (Reuters) - Pipeline and terminal operator Kinder Morgan (KMI.N) on Wednesday posted lower-than-expected profit for the third quarter as higher interest expenses offset strength in its natural gas and products pipeline segment. Shares of Kinder Morgan were down 1.6% at $16.87 in after-market trade. Lower contribution from Kinder Morgan's carbon dioxide (CO2) transportation segment also pressured its quarterly earnings, hurt by weaker prices of natural gas liquids and CO2, lower volumes and higher power costs. The Houston-based firm's earnings from the CO2 segment dropped to $175 million in the July-September quarter, from $195 million last year.

Futures prices for ultra-low sulphur diesel delivered in New York Harbor in September climbed to $135 per barrel on Aug. 9, up from $95 on May 31. Prices for diesel and other distillate fuel oils have been rising much faster than for crude petroleum, widening margins for refiners. Diesel prices are rising as traders anticipate that shortages will quickly re-emerge if the economy avoids falling into a recession later in 2023. The rapid escalation in diesel prices and hedge fund position building is a warning that capacity constraints and upward pressure on goods prices are likely to re-emerge relatively quickly later in 2023 and in 2024. Depleted diesel inventories are a sign that if the economy achieves a mid-cycle soft-landing the second phase of the current expansion could prove short and inflationary.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's Liberal government bought the Trans Mountain pipeline in 2018 from Kinder Morgan Inc (KMI.N) to ensure the expansion project got built and provided a C$10 billion loan guarantee to TMC. It is meant to unlock Asian markets for Canadian oil, which is mostly exported to the United States now.
