Oil is still one of the best bets for long-term gains says Greg Guenthner. In the midst of blind market panic, investors are forgetting that crude is a finite resource facing unquenchable demand. It will rise to record highs again. And when it does, oil stocks will soar.

Oil was given a lift yesterday. But at $81.19 a barrel, the black goo is still almost $70 from its July peak.
Greg Guenthner isn’t sweating it.
Oil prices have been caught up in widespread panic selling of recent months. It remains a scarce and essential commodity. This means it is only heading in one direction over the long term.
Greg recommends following oil guru Richard Rainwater’s cue and buying into oil stocks with both hands.

“Some things leave a mark, some leave a welt and some leave a scar. You can safely put the US Department of Interior’s Mineral Management Service into the scar category,” says Andy Carpenter. “As in hee hee hee, ha ha ha… from now on, the words mineral, management and service strung together in series will always evoke a hearty laugh from me.”

Could the US be ahead of the pack when in its economic downturn? “America has had its slower growth, weaker currency, massive housing meltdown and lived to tell about it. Now, with Fannie and Freddie taken into Uncle Sam’s bosom, America is ahead in the global game,” says Dan Denning in The Daily Reckoning Australia…

Even the most savvy investors have been stung by this year’s equity meltdown. Warren Buffett’s investment vehicle, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A, BRK.B), is down 24% from its peak in December 2007.
Alexander Green says BRK’s drop creates an outstanding buying opportunity. Buffett has an unrivaled track record as an investor. He has always followed a disciplined value-based strategy. And this still holds true today.
BRK.B shares are trading at $3,860, down from a 52-week high of $5,059. This makes them a no-brainer buy right now.

Hurricanes pass. But over the long term, says energy and oil expert Byron King, we are facing a “profound change” in the future availability of oil. That’s because Western oil companies are being kept away from resources by uncooperative states…

A hectic week on the economic calendar is highlighted by the initial look at second quarter gross domestic product (GDP). Remember, a recession is defined as two consecutive quarters of negative growth, so doomsayers have targeted this week’s release as confirmation of their pessimism.
