      What's the Right Price for Oil?
      I forgot to add this Steven Schork interview had it right all along. Listen especially around the 3:00 minute mark.

      Hey James,

      You probably already read about this in the FT. Looks like other firms found out that SemGroup was short so they were buying more and more long to drive there competitor under forcing the crude price ever higher and higher. After SemGroup's BK the competitors are selling crude cause they no longer have any reason to buy long. Wow! Mean world out there!

      Getting Excited About PHEVs
      Anyone know if the current Hybrids can be put on battery chargers, overnight, right now? Seems to me that produces the PHEV savings without having any upgrades and can be done right away.

      Options Trader: Friday Outlook
      Window-Reuters
      DOW JONES NEWSWIRES

      Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke told Freddie Mac Chief Executive Richard
      Syron that Freddie and Fannie Mae are eligible to use the Fed’s discount
      window, Reuters reported, citing a source with knowledge of the conversation.
      Bernanke told Syron in their phone conversation that he intended to allow the
      two government-sponsored mortgage giants to use the option, the source said.

      Dan - If this is what you're taking about I couldn't find any conformation and then later news seemed to recant this. Bottom line is no need to use the window I guess?

      How Low Can This Market Go? The 40 Percent Solution
      Reinko - all good points. I think the new car debt is declining because smart buyers are purchasing the smaller vehicles which are lower priced then the big SUVs. I have two which I plan to retire shortly but won't be buying anymore SUVs or big V8's for that matter.

      Yes, U.S. Gas Use Dropped; But So Did Production
      Bush could solve this problem with the stroke of a pen. Simply no new cars or SUVs, domestic or imported, over 3000 pounds period and new trucks could be purchased only by a licenced professional.

      Now quite throwing tomatoes at me.

      Maybe the 55 mph is a easier fix to save an instant 20%.

      paultaut - I am thinking the Iranians have the tankers sitting there to block the straits with if necessary. They can maneuver them into position and sink them and then light the oil up. It will make one holy mess of the gulf as the Iranians are shrude opponents and should not be taken lightly. They invented the game of chess.

      Fitz that's a great looking fish and I do agree with your tax increase ideas and about keeping America strong. Unfortunitly, the barn doors may be closing after all the horses have left. Gates and Buffet will have have moved their fortunes offshore, with the help of the charity, without paying their share of taxes and the whole systems seems destine to come crashing down on the middle class left holding the $9 Trillion bill.

      If the 15% capital gains ends this year won't that cause a sell off of even oil stocks before years end?

      Wait for crude oil to drop before investing. The oil stocks are decoupling from the price of crude and are dropping with the rest of the S&P stocks as folks realize oil is raising way beyond what the economy can support.

      Fitz is contradicting himself by cheering for a tax increase and touting crude oil and commodities stocks since the tax increase will send everyone scrambling for the last of the 15% capital gains by years end.

      On Oil and Its Manipulation
      Speculation with basic necessities such as food, water and yes gasoline should never be allowed. The greedy few are making life unbareable for the majority and this should NOT be allowed.

      3 Aspects to Pricing Oil
      Let the government own the refineries. I know that sounds wrong but stop and think. How can any company survive with everyone against them? The upgrades to handle the sour crude are being stifled by the environmentalists who have the Demos ears.

      Time to Short Both Long-Term Bonds and Crude
      That's the normal 4% spread the banks need to operate on and pay their CEO + options.

      Mike unfortunately time isn't on our side here.

      The problem is Hugo doing what he's done makes Bush look like a whip and everyone else want a piece of the chump.

      Tell me where all this innovation is coming from? We don't have centuries to wait you know. Like the following article shows the left hand doesn't know what the right hand doing.
