it's agnostic to the underlying price of natural gas. we are investing in merchant power plants in the united states. renewablessting in projects. we are investing in fossil fuel andr plant developments renewables in emerging markets and they have nothing to do with the price of oil. we also do a lot in natural gas. we have been more bullish on natural gas. natural gas is down this year only about 9% compared to the 30% drop in oil. we have exposure to oil somewhat. however, we think this is a momentary decline in the price. it will not be structural. this is not a demand-side problem. demand is ok globally for refined products. it is a supply-side issue. in thely, the shale united states is well understood and opec is not cutting productions. will stop being drilled and that will reduce the amount of supply. prices will snap black and we view this just prices will snap back and review this as volatility which we love. it allows us to invest at better moments in time. buying oilbably be assets at better prices over the next 12 months. >>
