Thanks for the great insight you continue to display in the commodity markets. Although you continue to provide updates on what is happening in the oil and gas markets, I am looking for your thoughts on propane. Two of the larger players I watch are Ferrelgas and Amerigas. Both pay nice dividends with long histories. Although the price of propane is certainly depressed, what do you see as far as price and the growth in that market?
Propane specifically is beyond my knowledge. However, ISA has been chronicling the NGL glut which is expected to worsen. A search on the site provides this: https://independentstockanalysis.com/?s=ngl
Good luck!
