Irina Gutyryak/iStock via Getty Images By Ashutosh Sureka Natural gas ( NG1:COM ) is trading near $2.92, down sharply from the $3.25 highs it reached just a few days ago. The selloff has been swift. Price has cut through all four moving averages within a short window, and the structure that held up through most of March has broken down. The market is now testing levels not seen since late February, and there is not much visible support between here and $2.85. Natural gas is trading well below all four of its key moving averages after the recent breakdown. The 20-period EMA, currently trading at $2.95, is the first level price to be reclaimed, followed by the 50-period EMA, currently trading at $3.07. Both EMAs are currently providing resistance, having previously provided support. Further above, the 100-period EMA is currently at $3.04, and the 200-period EMA is at $3.07, both of which have provided resistance to the price following the early March spike to $3.47. Natural gas price dynamics (February to March 2026) (Source: TradingView) Again, this pattern is becoming all too familiar. Natural gas is now making its third significant spike towards the $3.25-3.47 price range, and again, this price level is being sold heavily. This latest sell-off from $3.25 is by far the largest, with a 9% drop over a few sessions. RSI is currently trading at 39.59, which is still not in oversold territory, suggesting further declines before a strong rebound. Furthermore, with the signal line currently trading lower at 35.77, the price remains in a declining phase. Repeated rejection from highs signals distribution, not accumulation Three attempts to hold above $3.25 in less than three weeks have not been a positive sign. Each time there has been a move up, sellers have been present and selling has accelerated. This is a characteristic of a market where supply continues to overwhelm demand at higher price levels, and until demand can take out some of that supply, the trend remains do...

Want a good view of the cinema screen? You’ll need to sign up to the VIP scheme. A quick chat with your doctor? An extra $50,000 will let you jump the queue ‘What’s great about this country is America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest,” Andy Warhol wrote in 1975. “You can be watching TV and see Coca-Cola, and you can know that the President drinks Coke [and] you can drink Coke, too … The idea of America is so wonderful because the more equal something is, the more American it is.” Fifty years later, it’s still true that the Diet Coke Donald Trump is chugging by the caseload in the Oval Office is exactly the same stuff his public can buy in a local shop. But the idea that mass consumerism is characterised by equality is about as dead as Warhol is. There are precious few products or experiences that haven’t been segmented into multiple tiers, from “embarrassing pauper” to “ultra-VIP”, in order to extract as much money from the consumer as possible.

Republican California Sheriff Seizes Ballots In Election Probe Authored by Evgenia Filimianova via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours), Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, who is running to be the next California governor, has seized more than half a million ballots from a November 2025 special election on redistricting, triggering a political and legal confrontation with state officials. Sheriff Chad Bianco of Riverside County speaks during a news conference at the U.S. Capitol on May 15, 2024. Kent Nishimura/Getty Images Bianco obtained the ballots with a court-approved warrant in February as part of what he described as an investigation into an alleged discrepancy between ballot logs and official vote totals. The dispute centers on Riverside County, an inland region east of Los Angeles with roughly 2.5 million residents, where Bianco has twice been elected sheriff. “ Investigations into irregularities must happen so that the public can have full confidence ,” he said in a March 22 post on X. Bianco announced the investigation at a press conference on March 20, saying it stemmed from a complaint by a local citizens group that reviewed public records from the county Registrar of Voters. Bianco alleged that handwritten intake logs showed 611,428 ballots were received, while 657,322 votes were reported to the state—a gap of roughly 45,896 votes. He rejected the registrar’s explanation that official machine counts showed only a minor deviation attributable to human error. Calling the probe a “fact-finding mission,” Bianco said investigators plan to physically count ballots and compare the total with certified results. Clash With Attorney General County election officials and California Attorney General Rob Bonta, a Democrat, dispute Bianco’s claims and authority to conduct the probe. Bonta has characterized the seizure as unprecedented . In letters sent to the sheriff’s office over the past two months, he wrote that the action was “unacceptable” and that it “sets a dang...
