I hope everyone had a good Memorial Day weekend. I recently had Matt Warder, who recently took over The Coal Trader, on the podcast. You can also watch it on YouTube here. He is an expert on all things coal. We chatted for an hour on the coal sector and some the stocks that might be interesting to you. You can find him on Twitter as well.

We talked about Matt’s thoughts on a bunch of other coal related topics, including:

* The long term future of the sector.

* His thoughts on buybacks.

* Peabody, their Centurion mine, and Elliott heading for the exit.

* Warrior Met Coal being very attractive below $60, and the plan for Blue Creek over the next couple years.

* We also discussed Alpha Metallurgical Resources, Consol Energy, Whitehaven, Corsa Coal, Glencore and Teck.

* Matt’s Book Recommendations: Thinking, Fast And Slow by Daniel Kahneman & Narrative Economics by Bob Shiller.

Note: Since this podcast was recorded, Elliott Investment Management filed to sell their remaining 1.4M shares of Peabody Energy BTU .
