>>>>the price of oil is not as significant a measure in the price indexes as most believe.<<<

MR. Gj, the great decade of the 90's has not only been driven by technology, but of cheap commodities, especially oil, this is a mistake to dismiss oil, as much of new era speak does.

in fact, i believe cheap oil has been as much of a driver as technology

this is much reminiscent of the 60's when everybody was buying caddy's and chevy's with a 6 barrel carb on top of a 405.

the cheap oil has been at the expense of the cratering of asia and russia and the most oil producing countries, 1998 may have been a major bottom for them, the 6 year commodity cycle sezs yes.

like the late 70's, i think the auto companies that start producing fuel efficient autos, will be winners.
