3. I think that was Chuck and Roast.
They have a talk show.

In this case non traditional players are being forced to speculate. Like teacher pension funds. Think what could happen if Social Security were privatized and we all became speculators.

5. The worth of the american dollar
Has a big part to play in the oil price equation.
I have seen msm deny speculators have any thing to do with oil prices then later have them use it as one of the causes of the price outrage.
i hope some day real journalism will come back.

6. But not all.
There is plenty of speculation based on other factors. While oil prices drop some, our currency remains weak.
