Matthew Simmons interview

Just a heads up on the recent Financial Sense Newshour interview with guest expert Matthew Simmons, for anyone who might have missed it a couple weeks ago.

Jim Puplava speaks with Simmons about the need for greater awareness of peak oil-related issues, and for reexamining our current energy-intensive lifestyle and economic framework. As always, an interesting discussion.

You might also wish to contrast Matt Simmons' views with those of another recent FSN guest expert, Duncan Clarke. Clarke is the author of The Battle For Barrels: Peak Oil Myths and World Oil Futures and he is the guest expert interview for the April 14 broadcast.

Check it out.

William O'Neil Interview: How to Buy Winning Stocks

Investor's Business Daily founder and veteran stock trader, William O'Neil shared his trading methods and insights on buying winning stocks in an in-depth IBD radio interview.

Here are some highlights from William O'Neil's interview withIBD:

William O'Neil's interest in the stock market began when he started working as a young adult. 

"I say many times that I didn't get that much out of college. I didn't have much interest in the stock market until I graduated from college.
