By: The_Energy_Report
Big American utilities pay big dividends, some as high as 8% among regulated utilities, and right now they're as cheap, relative to the bond market, as they've been in about a quarter century. If you like investments as income, few people who know the utilities equities better than Morgan Stanley Analyst Greg Gordon. In this exclusive two-part interview with The Energy Report, Greg eloquently and frankly explains the utilities market and offers some picks in the regulated utilities space. Part II will focus on Greg's picks among the deregulated utilities.

China’s Yuan Appreciation Plan to Boost Inflation and Chinese Consumer Stocks / Companies / China Stocks
By: Money_Morning
Don Miller writes: China's plan to let the yuan appreciate against the U.S. dollar is likely to hit U.S. shoppers in the pocketbook, while also making the stocks of companies with goods aimed at Chinese consumers more attractive.
But because of wage pressures, the effects of China's move to introduce more flexibility to its currency policy won't fundamentally change its inflation problems, according to Money Morning Contributing Editor Martin Hutchinson.

China’s Foxconn Will Hurt the Global Economy More Than the BP Oil Spill / Companies / Corporate News
By: Money_Morning
Martin Hutchinson writes: Before this month, chances are pretty good that you'd never even heard of Taiwan's Foxconn International Holdings (PINK ADR: FXCNY). And yet, Foxconn is one of the world's most important manufacturers.
Given that the formerly anonymous giant is now at the forefront of the zooming escalation in labor costs that's currently taking place in Mainland China - and given the enormous implications of the inflationary pressures that will result - chances are excellent that Foxconn will have a bigger effect on the world economy this year than even BP PLC (NYSE ADR: BP).

In the second half of the show, Max talks to Mike Ruppert about peak oil, the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, and his movie "Collapse".

By: Frank_Holmes
While the world waits for oil to stop gushing from the ocean floor, a large group of Americans are waiting to go back to work.
Offshore drilling has been shut down since the Deepwater Horizon accident in mid-April that claimed 11 lives and started the massive Gulf of Mexico spill. The longer it lasts, the more damage it will do to America’s energy sector.

BP Gulf Oil Spill Cost Now $22 Billion and Rising / Companies / Oil Companies
By: Money_Morning
Don Miller writes: As the clock on the Gulf oil spill ticks past 60 days, the costs are approaching $22 billion, with no end in sight. Now, there is growing evidence that errors committed by both the U.S. government and BP PLC (NYSE ADR: BP) may have complicated efforts to clean up the mess.
The Coast Guard and BP each had written plans for responding to a massive Gulf oil spill, but both now say their plans failed to anticipate such a disaster threatening so much coastline at once. Furthermore, a miscommunication and disagreements between officials on federal, state, and local levels resulted in a lack of coordination and delays.

Investor Profit Opportunity Emerges Out of the Gulf Oil Crisis / Companies / Oil Companies
By: Mark_McMillan
When will there be good news to follow the bad news of a BP platform explosion, sinking, 6-month moratorium on new drilling and now up to 60,000 barrels per day spill into the Gulf of Mexico? I don't have an exact answer to that question. While BP has been the primary focus of President Barack Obama's outrage, there are many companies that have been punished in sympathy with BP's plight.

By: Money_Morning
Martin Hutchinson writes: Both the U.S. stock market and the U.S. economy are navigating rough waters right now.

Stock Trends Chart Analysis, Eye on Best Buy and FedEx / Companies / Company Chart Analysis
By: Mike_Paulenoff
There will be two significant earnings reports out this week. Best Buy Co. Inc. (BBY) will release their earnings before the market opens on Tuesday, and FedEx Corporation (FDX) will do so before the market opens on Wednesday.
Beginning with Best Buy, it's not a bad-looking chart. It peaked in April with the market and looks like the S&P 500 and overall stock market. Will earnings in Best Buy extend it to the upside? Will they have results that suggest that the economy has improved as a lot of the non-employment data have suggested recently? Do people have more disposable income to buy electronics, home office products, entertainment software, appliances, and related products?
