After years building out export capacity and hiring traders, producers of liquefied natural gas and commodity trading houses are seizing on an unprecedented surge in the price of the fuel.
The combination of a severe cold snap in Asia, supply outages and maritime congestion has propelled spot prices for LNG to previously unforeseen heights. The North Asian price benchmark has now risen 18-fold in less than nine months, outperforming other commodities -- even Bitcoin.
Winners in this rally include Exxon Mobil Corp., which sold a cargo last week for a record $130 million to Japan, and Total SE, which secured $126 million on Tuesday in a sale to trading company Trafigura Group. Other producers, such as Royal Dutch Shell Plc and Houston-based Cheniere Energy Inc., are also taking the opportunity to offload consignments that aren’t tied to long-term supply contracts. Owners of LNG tankers, meanwhile, are reaping record charter rates.

Interest in refinancing mortgages soared to start the year, rising by 20% from the previous week.
The surge in refinancing also led to overall demand for mortgage applications to increase by 16.7% from the prior week, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association's latest survey.
The previous week’s results included an adjustment for the holidays.
The number of people intent on purchasing a home rose in the past week by 8%.
“Booming refinance activity in the first full week of 2021 caused mortgage applications to surge to their highest level since March 2020, despite most mortgage rates in the survey rising last week," said Joel Kan, MBA’s associate vice president of economic and industry forecasting. "The expectation of additional fiscal stimulus from the incoming administration, and the rollout of vaccines improving the outlook, drove Treasury yields and rates higher."
The refinance share of mortgage activity increased to 74.8% of total applications from 73.5% the previous week.
Mortgage and refinancing demand rose despite the 30-year fixed mortgage rate climbing two basis points to 2.88%.
The 15-year fixed-rate mortgage, however, ticked down to 2.39%.
“Sustained housing demand continued to support purchase growth, with activity up nearly 10 percent from a year ago," added Kan. "The lower average loan balance observed was partly due to a 9.2 percent increase in FHA applications, which is a positive sign of more lower-income and first-time buyers returning to the market.”

Finchè il decennale rimane sotto l'1,50% non c'è da temere (così ho letto da qualche parte).
