Holy shit! Oil prices rise 21% today... from $105 to $127.....

Not so coincidentally, the US dollar took a plunge against the Euro.

Bailout not looking so good now for Wall Street?

1. I was just going to post this....

Almost $ 37.00 in the last week...

Welcome to a gloomy winter.

IT's what the Financial people refer to as a flight to quality.

Investors, at least short term ones, don't believe the package is worth the paper it has yet to be written on so they are cashing out and buying Oil futures...

2. This was the plan all along...

I'm about ready to ram this fucking computer up the asses of all the fuckers who called me a fucking conspiracy fucking theorist!

The US Dollar is leaving the world market. Wave bye-bye.

4. Blackmail......

$5.00/gal gas coming - oil up to put pressure on the Senate to pass this bill without any punitive actions or considerations on exec salary.

They figure the American people will put pressure on the Senate to pass this bill quick to give *Co what they want again without any strings. This is being engineered and manipulated - I believe that's why the market is down today as well.

5. It's a reflection of how worthless the dollar is becoming.

There's serious talk about finally making the switch to another currency for world trade.

6. It is called short covering....

I doubt it stays up.
